Here's a super easy and tasty drink recipe for those hot summer days. You can make it as sweet or tart as you like. I learned the secrets when I worked for a popular local caterer and I love to make it whenever i can.
Fresh Lime
Ingredients:
2 Liters 7-Up - not Sprite!
1 can frozen Limeade concentrate
6 limes
Ice
Start by emptying the limeade into a large pitcher. Then add as much 7-Up to the pitcher as you would water as listed on the limeade mixing instructions. Squeeze the juice from 5 of the limes and add to pitcher. Also add the squeezed limes themselves. Stir all together and take a small taste. It will probably be too tart, so slowly add more 7-Up until it is the right balance of sweet and sour for your palate. Pour over ice in glasses and add lime wedges as a garnish.
It's best if you mix this drink right before you're ready to serve so the soda doesn't loose all it's fizziness.
