Notes
Tips & Variations
- Mix gently - instead of shaking in a shaker, use a bar spoon to gently stir so that the Sprite doesn't fizz up everywhere.
- Make a pitcher - double, triple or multiply ingredients by more in order to make a pitcher or a big batch. Just make sure to keep the 2:1 Sprite to vodka ratio the same as that ratio results in the best flavor.
- Drink right away - though you technically can make this ahead, the Sprite goes flat pretty quickly. So, it's best to make it when you want to use it and not make extra to store for later.
- Flavored vodka - try out a flavored vodka like cherry, grape or strawberry to change up the flavors a little.
- Add grenadine - add a splash of grenadine to make this a Dirty shirley cocktail.
