     I didn't feel like going to the store to get strawberries, but I had some frozen unsweetened cherries. I threw them in the bender frozen :) and used splenda instead of agave! - 7/5/12

     For the commenter that said 8 oz is a pretty small size for a drink: if you read "serving size" on ... really, any drink I've ever seen: 8 oz is the serving size. Just FYI. And that includes water, since the recommendations are always broke down to number of 8-oz glasses. - 7/6/12

     this is a great recipe. I live in Florida, so fruit is plentiful and inexpensive. I have added raspberries, strawberries, cherries, blueberries and blackberries and even a little lemon/juice. Thank you for the recipe - 7/23/12

     I made this on our 100 degree day today. Really hit the spot! Slightly more tart than I like, next time I think I'll make it with just strawberries, but all in all, a really good summer drink! - 8/16/12

     I bet Sprite Zero would go great instead of the celtzer water or club soda. Sooo refreshing on this HOT summer days. Thanks. - 6/10/13

     I liked it but I had to drink it at room temperature, I cannot tolerate cold in my mouth. I liked it a lot but the lime was the KEY. - 6/3/12

     Thank you for this. Too many time people make their limeaids with 7up or sprite. I worked in an Ice Cream parlor when I was younger, this is how we made them. - 6/3/12

     My boyfriend and didn't really like this recipe. We used 1.5 cups cherries instead of the berries. All I tasted was lime juice, to the point it made my eyes burn and I couldn''t even drink it. Adding more cherries to the leftover mixture to dilute the lime helped a little bit. didn't make 5 servings - 7/23/13

     one cup (8 oz) for a drink is pretty small. - 7/2/12

     As I am allergic to Aguave I tried w/o rather than an alternative to Aguave nectar or nothing-which as I found out is good enough. - 6/11/12
