Cherry Limeaid

It is almost embarrassingly simple to make….that is if I was the type to be embarrassed

about such things..

I am more the type to brag about how easy or how cheap something is!

Unless, of course, it was a date… you don’t want to brag about your date being cheap and easy…

Not that I am currently dating… I have been married 32 years for goodness sake..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Moving on.

Here is all you need-

1 can frozen limeade concentrate,

1- 2 liter bottle Sprite,

Juice from 1 10 oz jar cherries

Fresh limes (optional)

Simply put it all together.. tough huh?

I added slices of limes to the pitcher and the glasss, and put cherries in the glasses only.

What is it about maraschino cherries? Are they even real cherries?

Or do they fall into the same category as hot dogs do-

The ’Don’t ask, Don’t tell’ category..?

On that note. If you do know what is in them and it is uber yucky

please don’t feel that you need to alert me to those ingeredients and /or

dangerous chemical canning process..
