Equipment

  • Glass (12–16 oz)
  • Measuring spoon

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups Sprite or sugar-free Sprite
  • 1 tablespoon grenadine syrup
  • 1 tablespoon maraschino cherry juice from the jar
  • ¼ cup vanilla-flavored coffee creamer
  • Ice
  • Maraschino cherries for garnish
  • Lime wedge optional garnish

Instructions

  • 1. Add grenadine syrup and maraschino cherry juice to the bottom of a glass.
  • 2. Fill the glass generously with ice.
  • 3. Pour Sprite slowly over the ice, filling the glass about three-quarters full.
  • 4. Gently pour the vanilla creamer directly over the ice — do not stir so it layers beautifully.
  • 5. Garnish with maraschino cherries and a lime wedge if desired.
  • 6. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy!

Notes

For a layered look, pour the creamer slowly over the back of a spoon.
Swap vanilla creamer for coconut creamer for a tropical twist.
