Ingredients
  

Drink Components
  • 1 can (12 oz) Sprite or lemon-lime soda chilled
  • 2-3 tbsp strawberry syrup store-bought or homemade
  • 0.5 cup fresh strawberries sliced, plus one whole for garnish
  • 1 cup ice nugget or cubed
  • 1 wedge fresh lime optional

Equipment

  • Tall Glass
  • Stirrer or Long Spoon

Method
 

  1. Wash strawberries. Slice half of them and keep one whole strawberry for garnish by cutting a small slit in its base.
  2. Pour the strawberry syrup into the bottom of a tall glass.
  3. Fill the glass halfway with ice, then arrange some fresh strawberry slices against the inside of the glass.
  4. Fill the rest of the glass to the top with ice, adding the remaining strawberry slices.
  5. Slowly pour the cold Sprite over the ice until the glass is full.
  6. If desired, squeeze a wedge of fresh lime over the top for extra tartness.
  7. Garnish the rim of the glass with the whole strawberry. Serve with a long spoon or straw, and stir well before drinking.

Notes

For a creamier 'Utah-style' dirty soda, add 2 tablespoons of coconut cream or half-and-half to the top before serving.
