Oh, Sakura is definitely Sarada's mother. She inherited the shape of both her eyes and face, and her hairstyle looks a lot like Mebuki's (Sakura's mom) Karin being Sarada's mother, for the hundredth time, doesn't make any sense.

Just like Mitsuki had told her, questioning their identity and self-worth is common for girls their age and is referred to as their "tragic heroine syndrome". That's a hint that Sarada was just being silly of thinking Sakura isn't her mother. You can turn it any way you like, but when it comes to visible genetic appearance, Sarada looks absolutely nothing like Sakura and couldn't look more like Karin. I'm going to have to accuse you of being extremely biased if you truly argument with Sarada looking anything like Sakura and not like Karin. Kishimoto may have said that he has given Sarada a certain touch like Sakura, but that still means nothing. Certainly he gave other characters a touch of different and unrelated characters as well.

Now I'm not saying Sakura is not the mother. But what I am saying is that at this point, there is absolutely nothing that definitely disproves a genetic relationship between Sarada and either of the two potential mothers. Karin being the mother would make in many aspects a lot of sense. Sasuke was her love interest, she is female while Sasuke is male, she wasn't said to be infertile or deceased, she looks very much like Sarada, there is some connection between them etc.. Same goes for Sakura. Sasuke was her love interest too, she is also female, she's alive and not said to be infertile either, she raised Sarada, she's married to Sasuke etc.. Both potential mothers can very well be it.

You can have your own theory and wishes regarding this. Trying to disprove the possibility of either of the two being the biological mother, however, is something that can't be done.
