Other suggestions and comments:
* If you use Frozen strawberries (available pre-packaged at the grocery store) you can either skip the ice cubes, or use wayyy less of 'em! Having the can of pop Chilled is also a plus.
The strawberry flavor will be stronger that way.

It's so hard to be strong-willed; gotta have something Xcellent on hand. That's why I mention the ice cubes/no ice cubes options: when you Need a sweet strawberry fix, ya gotta have it Nowwwww! ;-)
A small squeeze of lime juice might brighten the flavor a bit, too.
Similar to a 'virgin' strawberry daiquiri, minus the bar tab.
