Ingredients
- Ice
- 2 ounces cherry vodka
- 1 ounce grenadine
- ½ ounce lime juice fresh squeezed
- 4 ounces lemon-lime soda
- Maraschino cherries for garnish
- Limes for garnish
Instructions
- Start by adding ice to a cocktail glass. Pour in the vodka, grenadine, and lime juice.
- Top with lemon-lime soda and add cherries and limes for garnish, serve and enjoy.
Notes
- You can use ginger ale in place of the lemon-lime soda if desired.
- For more of an alcohol kick, use triple sec instead of the fresh-squeezed lime juice.
- I think the layering effect you can make with this drink is very beautiful, but, you can also stir everything together.
- If scaling to make a pitcher drink, wait to add ice and just pour the pitcher over ice in cocktail glasses.
- This drink is best enjoyed right when you make it, so drink up!
- This can be made non-alcoholic by add just more soda and eliminating the vodka.
