Sonic Cherry Limeade
Sonic Cherry Limeade
Here's the signature drink from the chain that's reviving the drive-up burger joint, just like a scene out of American Graffiti or Happy Days. It was in 1953 that Troy Smith obtained the parcel of land in Shawnee, Oklahoma that was big enough to fit the new steakhouse and root beer stand that was his dream. Troy thought he'd make the steakhouse his primary operation, but as it turned out, folks preferred the hot dogs and cold drinks over at the root beer stand. So Troy did the smart thing and ditched the steakhouse to focus all his efforts on the other joint. At first, he called the root beer stand "Top Hat." But when Troy found out later that name was already being used, he came up with "Sonic" to signify "service at the speed of sound." Today, the chain is the sixth-largest hamburger outlet in the country. This recipe makes a simple, old-fashioned drink by combining Sprite with cherry juice and some lime wedges. Use cherry juice made by Libby under the brand-name Juicy Juice for the best home clone.
12 ounces Sprite (1 can)
3 lime wedges (1/8 of a lime each)
1/4 cup cherry juice (Libby's Juicy Juice is best)
1. Fill a 16-ounce glass 2/3 full with ice.
2. Pour Sprite over the ice.
3. Add the juice of three lime wedges and drop them into the drink.
4. Add the cherry juice and serve with a straw. Makes 1 16-ounce drink (medium size).

| You Are a Bit Prissy |
 From time to time, you can be a princess... but these days, who isn't a little high-maintenance? You know what you want, and you're definitely not afraid to ask for it. (Just refrain from having a temper tantrum if you don't get your way!) There's nothing wrong with having high standards... as long as they're occasionally low enough to allow spontaneity and fun! |
| Your Heart is Feeling Sour |
 Love isn't something you've forgotten, it's something you actively despise. You've obviously been hurt, and you're not moving on from those bad feelings any time soon. Love has left a scar on your heart. And you're in no mood to revisit romance. Deep down, your heart is susceptible to: Jealousy and sickness Your current outlook on love: Is cynical and downright angry Your love life will improve if you: Remember the good times - love isn't as devastating as you think. Watch out for: Scaring people away with bitterness. Even your best friends can only take so much. |
