Ingredients
Scale
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
2 cups lemon-lime soda (like Sprite or 7UP)
1 cup ice cubes
1 tablespoon strawberry syrup (optional for extra sweetness)
Fresh strawberries for garnish
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly and slice them into thin pieces. For a stronger strawberry flavor, muddle a few slices in the glass to release their juices before adding other ingredients.
Fill your glass about halfway with ice cubes to keep the drink refreshingly cold.
Pour the lemon-lime soda over the ice, leaving some room at the top for additional ingredients.
Add a tablespoon of strawberry syrup for a richer strawberry flavor and stir gently to combine the flavors.
Add a few whole strawberries on top for garnish. Optionally, place a sliced strawberry on the rim of the glass for an extra pop of color.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
For extra sweetness, adjust the amount of strawberry syrup to taste.
This drink is best served immediately for optimal freshness.
Consider experimenting with different types of soda for varied flavors.
