         Title: Sonic Cherry Limeade   
    Categories: Beverages, Copycat   
         Yield: 1 Drink   
       
        12 oz Can Sprite   
         3    Lime wedges;   
              - ea 1/8 of a lime   
       1/4 c  Cherry juice;   
              - Libby's is best   
       
     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 he   
     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 "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.   
        
     Fill a 16 oz glass 2/3rds full with ice.   
        
     Pour Sprite over the ice.   
        
     Add the juice of 3 lime wedges and drop them into the drink.   
        
     Add the cherry juice and serve with a straw.
