Description

A refreshing and fizzy twist on the classic Dirty Sprite, this strawberry version features muddled berries, lemon-lime soda, and a splash of citrus—perfect for parties, warm days, or fun get-togethers.


Ingredients

1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, chopped (or thawed frozen strawberries)

23 tablespoons white sugar (adjust to taste)

1 can (12 oz) lemon-lime soda (e.g., Sprite or 7UP)

½ cup cold water

Juice of half a lime (or lemon)

Ice cubes (as desired)

Optional: a splash of grape soda

Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish


Instructions

  1. Toss chopped strawberries into a jug or large glass, sprinkle sugar over them, and muddle until juicy and chunky.
  2. Pour in cold water and lime juice. Stir and adjust sweetness if needed.
  3. Slowly add lemon-lime soda to avoid fizz overflow. Stir gently to combine. Add grape soda for the “dirty” twist if using.
  4. Fill glasses with ice, spoon in strawberry mixture, and pour the soda mix over the top.
  5. Garnish with mint or a lemon slice. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust sugar based on the sweetness of the berries.
  • Use lemon instead of lime for a different citrus twist.
  • Diet soda works well for a lower sugar version.
  • Raspberries or blueberries can be used as substitutes.
  • Prepare the strawberry base in advance and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
