Make the call: the ball is stripped & caught...
 
Today while playing pickup I was driving to the basket and just after I grabbed the ball up with both hands (I had possession) it got stripped from my hands, but as it was falling away from me I re-caught it, then began to dribble again.

The argument was that I cannot dribble after picking up my dribble unless I let the ball hit the ground. Then I argued that since I lost possession and then regained possession I get my dribble back.

What is the official call? Thoughts? Thanks for the help!

The ball was hit from your hands by an opponent, so you may dribble again after regaining control whether or not it hit the floor. If you had lost the ball without an opponent touching it, then you may not dribble a second time.
