I am sooooo addicted to the Diet Cherry Limeaide at Sonic. I have to stop and get one anytime I am anywhere in the vicinity of my local Sonic. I have tried to figure out how to make them at home before, but it was never quite the same.
I was busy checking out their website the other day and looking up the nutrition information on some of the items I will never let pass thru my lips, and saw the nutrition information for my favorite beverage, it gave every single ingredient and there are only three! There is no sugar, no carbs and no calories!
Whooo the hell Whoooooooo! Let me tell you the three secret ingredients!
Diet Cherry Syrup (I am a fan of the DaVinci line of syrups)
Sprite Zero
Limes, halved
Lots of crushed ice (luckily my ice maker has that option, cubes would work just fine)
Add a bit of your syrup to your glass with ice in it already, top with some Sprite and squeeze a lime into it, add the lime to the glass when you are done squeezing (it adds more flavor), stir and enter heaven!
TA DA that's it, I like a bit less syrup in mine, you can mix to your favorite taste or use different flavored syrups! Give it a try, it is the most thirst quenching drink I have ever had!

Oh Cheryl, you can bet I am making some of these this weekend. I just added the syrup and soda to my shopping list. THANKS!!
Like it. I'm heading to the store today.
That is my favorite!! I also add marischino cherries...could eat a jar in a sitting....lol. I can't find the diet (or regular) cherry syrup around here, though.
Wonderful cooler...do you think vodka or rum would be a flavor enhancer? ;-)
Looks perfect for these hot days. So refreshing and tasty!
This looks so cool and refeshing- thanks for such a grest drink idea!
i always see Sonic commercials here in boston, but there are no Sonics nearby!! this drink looks refreshing, perfect for summer!
This sounds soo refreshing!
OOOHHH, may I join you for a few?
Sounds so refreshing Cherryl!
I love how you made your own!
Wow this looks good. We dont have a Sonic near us...but this would be a great summer drink. Hope your pizza on the grill turned out great!
The look refreshing. I love Sonic's though the one I used to go to closed. They are so much fun. Your puppy pics are so cute!
Hi! Popped over from a link on Krystal's Recipes of a Cheapskate blog to visit. I keep seeing the commercials for these and have been wondering what all they put in theme and there your recipe was!! Sounds so refreshing. I'm with Katherine - vodka or rum would be a good enhancer, should one want to imbibe!!
oh, I wish I could make this. It's too bad I gave up soda over a year ago. :( I miss the stuff.
I'm thinking a little vodka sounds good, too!
well bless your heart, cheryl--i LOVE the sonic cherry limeade! it's the best ade-type drink i've ever had, but then again, i haven't yet tried your version. will do!
I finally had one for the first time in my life (even blogged about it, lol!) and it is indeed yummy. Thank you for this recipe!
oh yum! i have been drinking TONS of lime and mint leaves with soda water this week due to the heatwave that hit Seattle and the environs and I just con't get enough of it!
