Fast Food Splurge...

I don't head to fast food joints so much anymore--however after an after work errand today, why not stop at Sonic? Love their commercials! Plus I'll munch on their onion rings a time or two.

So when my car hop brought my grub, I became a ravenous cougar ready to shred her prey. For grins and for something other than my usual unsweetened iced tea with two packets of sweeteners, I ordered a strawberry limeade. Thought it would whet my whistle.


It didn't.

OK, should I have used the two packets of sweetener I woulda used in my iced tea for the strawberry limeade? Just to make it a little sweet to go with its tart? Guess that shows I rarely-like never- get limeades. Just sounded like something I would enjoy. COULD enjoy. And I debated between the limeade and the strawberry slush.

Shoulda got the strawberry slush. Well, until somebody schools me on how to savor a limeade.

Next time.

It's gotta be the cherry limeade - no other flavor will do. And a lot of times, they put 1/2 a squeezd lime in the cup, so you have to make sure your straw isn't sticking in the middle of the lime or it really will be very tart.

Thus ends today's Sonic lesson...

Cherry...strawberry....do you put any sweetener in it? My strawberry limeade tasted---well, a bit flat! The lesson goes on!

I don't use sweetener, usually the cherry flavor makes up for any of the lime-tartness.
As for being flat, if the Sprite wasn't carbonated properly, I could imagine a limeade tasting pretty bland.
Maybe try a different Sonic???
