Strawberry Dirty Sprite (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Drink Base

01 - A glass of lemon-lime soda (about 240 ml, like Sprite)
02 - 2 tablespoons strawberry syrup (30 ml)
03 - Squeeze of fresh lime juice (30 ml)
04 - Optional: 30 ml vanilla vodka
05 - Ice cubes for cooling

→ Toppings

06 - Slices of fresh strawberries
07 - Lime wedges for garnish

# Instructions:

01 - Pack a tall glass full of ice. If you want it extra cold, chill the glass in your fridge or freezer beforehand.
02 - Put the strawberry syrup, lime juice, and vodka (if using) into a shaker. Give it a strong 10-second shake to mix everything well. Skip the vodka for an alcohol-free option.
03 - Pour the shaken mixture over ice in the glass. Then finish it off by adding lemon-lime soda. Stir gently a couple of times.
04 - Pop some strawberry slices and a lime wedge on top. Drink it right away for the best taste.

# Notes:

01 - Use fresh lime juice for a nice zing.
02 - You can tweak the strawberry syrup amount to get just the right sweetness.
03 - Switch out lemon-lime soda for club soda if you want a less sugary option.
04 - Try blending all the liquids with some ice for a slushy version.
05 - Spruce it up with mint, a sugared rim, or extra berries for a fun look.
