It’s hot and all I want to do is drink frosty beverages with yummy ice all day long!  One of my favorite drinks is a cherry limeade.  They are super tasty and super refreshing in the summer time.  Lately I’ve been trying to cut back on carbonated beverages so I haven’t had as many cherry limeades this summer as I would’ve like.  To stave off the craving, I thought it’d be fun to create some cherry limeade cupcakes to make me feel like I’m indulging in my favorite summer drink.

These cherry limeade cupcakes are full of fresh lime in the cake and delicious cherry in the frosting.  I have decided that I really like lime!  I even love it added to my drinking water.  It’s just such a refreshing flavor.  And it doesn’t disappoint in these cupcakes.
