Sonic Cherry Limeaide
Nothing is quite as refreshing as a Sonic Cherry Limemade. You can enjoy this recipe anytime at home. This was introduced to me by Russ Stevens. When were in college together he claimed it was the best thing to get through a long day.
1 12 oz. can of Slice Lemon Lime or Sprite
2 Tbsp. Cherry Syrup
1/3 of a lime
2 Tbsp. Cherry Syrup
1/3 of a lime
In a tall glass add the Cherry syrup, squeeze lime and put it into the glass. Pour in Sprite, and add some ice. If you like you can add a cherry. And it was. Recently a manager of a Sonic suggested to me that you should use Grenadine to get a slightly more bitter flavor 
If you have access to Slice Lemon Lime made by Pepsi please use this instead of Sprite. It does provide a better taste.

I worked at the local Sonic Drive-In in Southeast TN. We actually used Sprite instead of Pepsi products because our district was contracted for Coca-Cola products. For a medium sized Cherry Limeade (20 oz.) follow this recipe:
1- 1 1/2 cup(s) ice
2 tbsp of cherry syrup (sno cone syrup works fine)
1/4 of 1 lime; squeezed, and the entire contents placed inside glass/cup (yes, even the lime)
1 marachino cherry
fill the rest of the glass/cup with Sprite
For a “cherry-er” taste, add more cherry syrup and for a “lime-ier” taste, add more lime. We had customers that liked more or less of either of the two main ingredients. Just play around with the ingredients to suit your personal taste.
Also, Sonic had a sugar-free version which utilized sugar-free cherry syrup; which can be found in the sno cone syrup section at any Wal-Mart, and Diet Sprite.
I think it really depends who the soda contract goes to on what your recipe for the Limeaide is. It is all good. Thank you for the tip on the sno cone syrup. I have seen cherry syrup at some stores from time to time. I bet the sno cone syrup is less pricey.
Do they even still make slice?????? I haven’t seen it in NJ in a LLLOOONNNGGG time.
