CHERRY LIMEADE
Nothing beats an easy, sweet and deliciously cold drink recipe…and that is exactly what this Cherry Limeade Recipe is! A definite crowd pleaser, and a summer favorite for when you need a nice cold drink.
Hey there Idea Room readers! I am Jessica, half of the creative team behind Pretty Providence, a cheerful website where I blog with my childhood bestie (Sarah) about how to eat well, play hard, make pretty things, look great and have a happy home… all while living on a budget! We just adore Amy and look up to her so much, so we jumped at the chance to post today as part of her Summer Series!
PEBBLE ICE
Okay, let’s get down to business! Sarah and I both live it H-O-T climates, and especially in the summer a girl will do whatever it takes to feel refreshed.. if only for a few minutes! SO, we have become masters of the cold summer drinks!
I am kind of a freak about pebble ice (I love it so much!) so when I am in charge of the beverage on any special occasion I jump at the chance to buy a bag from the local gas station! But it is definitely not a mandatory ingredient, just a fun one! Did you know you can also buy a pebble ice maker machine?

Sounds and looks yummy. Going to try it. Thanks. Always looking for new beverages.
My kids really enjoyed this! We made it with a twist. As it is summer all the limeade was out of stock, so we made it with pink lemonade! Also very good!!
YUM! You can’t go wrong with that change up!
I make my cherry limeade with Cherry 7-Up, instead of Sprite. It’s soooo good!
Great idea! I will try that.
Sounds like a great recipe for day on the lake this summmer!!! Thanks for sharing.
Sounds great, but I don’t like chunks of anything in my drinks. It’s a texture thing . So could I just use plain cherry juice with a little extra sugar? I’m going to try
Yes! You can! My dad was the same way! It will work just fine!
OK, strange question! Where did you get the glasses in this post? I love them!
Susan- I am not sure where they got these adorable glasses. You can email pretty providence and ask them: https://prettyprovidence.com/the-worlds-best-cherry-limeade/

We drink this all summer long!! I love that it’s actual cherries in it. My kids can’t get enough!
Kristyn-We do too!
We don’t have frozen concentrated lime juice (or any frozen concentrated juice) in Europe. Any suggestions for a substitute?
You can just add ice and limeade.
Do you use the juice from the cherries?
You definitely can. That would be so yummy.
