Method
Prepare Glass
Chill glass
If possible, chill the serving glass in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes before making the drink to keep the drink colder longer.
Add ice cubes to the chilled glass until about half to three-quarters full (approximately 1 cup of ice).
Mix Drink
Pour 2 cups of cold Sprite (or any lemon-lime soda) into a measuring cup or pitcher. If you prefer a slightly less sweet or less fizzy drink for kids, add 1/2 cup cold water and stir gently to combine.
Stir in 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice and 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice. These add a fresh citrus brightness that balances the sweetness. If the child prefers sweeter, add 1 teaspoon simple syrup and stir until combined.
Taste briefly and adjust: add up to 1 more teaspoon simple syrup for sweetness or an extra teaspoon lemon/lime juice for more tartness.
Finish & Garnish
Pour the mixed soda over the ice in the prepared glass. Pour gently to preserve carbonation.
Garnish the rim or float the lemon and lime slices on top. Add a small sprig of fresh mint if using, slapped lightly between your hands first to release aroma.
Serve immediately with a straw or short spoon for stirring.
