Now, that's just sick and a waste of good limeade.
[Despite being born and spending the first 20 years of my life in NC, I never particularly liked Cheerwine*. And when I hit Boston, I discovered I prefer my lime rickey's straight as well.
Though I, along with the few other North Carolinians at my Silicon Valley-located company, have been bemused of late at Cheerwine showing up in our kitchen and cafeteria drink selections.]
*Not surprisingly, given that I dislike a lot more items in traditional "Southern cuisine" relative to the number I dislike in other cuisines. More evidence in my mind towards that "somehow I was a Northern urban baby swapped at birth with a Southern rural one" theory. : -)
