On the 4th of July I made this tart cherry limeade. It was so refreshing on a hot summer night. I just kept drinking it and could not get enough! I asked my husband on a scale of 1-10 what he would rate it and he gave it about an 8. I, on the other hand had to give it a 10! So either way, I guess you would have to say that it will be one of our new favorites in summer drinks!
Don’t you love these mason jars with the daisy lids! I have seen them all over blog land and decided that I need them! :) I just bought a case of regular mouth mason jars, ordered the lids here and got my straws at Gygi’s. I love, love, love them and I am sure that I will be using them many times!
So does anyone want to make the BEST Cherry limeade ever!
Cherry Limeade (adapted from allrecipes.com)
1-12 oz can frozen limeade concentrate
1-2 liter bottle lemon lime soda
1/2 jar maraschino cherries (10 ounce) drained and juice reserved
1 lime
Pour can of frozen concentrated limeade into a large pitcher. Mix with the lemon-lime soda. Stir in reserved cherry juice. Squeeze juice from lime into mixture, then slice and set aside. Stir well and serve over ice. Garnish with cherries and lime slices. So Refreshing!!!
So pretty too!

These lids are the cutest and even though you say they’ve been all around blog land, I’ve missed them :( so thanks for letting me know about them! The recipe sounds easy and tasty and I’d love to try it!
Thank you for taking the time to comment. This recipe is easy and I had some left over, so I am adding more lemon-lime soda and ice and it still tastes yummy! I guess it is just the tart limeade that I love!
Sounds delicious! I love how they look!
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for your support! My husband and I are still enjoying this drink after a few days! I just add more lemon-lime soda and ice and it is delicious!

Love this idea, great for summrer I am going to look up those lids!
Have the lids straws and jars now I need the cute tray they are sitting in. Any ideas where to find one
I think that I got the tray from Hobby Lobby, but it was several years ago, so I don’t know if you will be able to find one there. I really have not seen one like it anywhere else. If anyone out there has seen one, will you let me know!
Hi!
Which size are your jars exactly? There are so many options online and I’m getting confused! It would be great if you could send me a link on ebay or amazon :)
The jars only come in two sizes, regular and wide mouth. The link on the blog for the daisy cut lid is for the regular size jars. Just click on that link to order yours.
