Sonic Cherry Limeade
By: Todd Wilbur
Here's the signature drink from the chain that's reviving the drive-up burger joint, just like a scene out of American Graffitti or Happy Days. At this growing chain you pull up to a stall and servers bring food out to your car as they did in the 40's and 50's. This recipe makes a simple old-fashioned drink by combining 7-Up with cherry juice and some wedges of lime. Very refreshing! (according to Potsy).
1 cup Sprite
1/4 cup cherry juice (Libby is good)
2-3 lime wedges (each 1/8 lime)
1. Pour Sprite into a glass over ice.
2. Add cherry juice.
3. Add 2-3 lime wedges, squeezing slightly before dropping each one in. (http://www.topsecretrecipes.com) Serves 1.

Snapple Iced Tea (Lemon Flavor)
Snapple Iced Tea (Lemon Flavor)
By: Todd Wilbur
Here's a quick and easy recipe for the brand of ice tea that hit the market and quickly blew away competitors Lipton and Nestea. Between 1988 and 1992 Snapple tea sales increased a whopping 1,300 percent. And if you like Snapple ice tea, you'll find this recipe will save you some cash. While a 16-ounce bottle of Snapple tea costs around $1.00, this top secret clone cost about 15 cents -- for the same amount.
2 quarts (8 cups) water
3 Lipton tea bags (orange pekoe and pekoe cut black tea blend)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup plus
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1. Boil the water in a large saucepan over high heat.
2. When the water comes to a rapid boil, turn off the heat, put the tea bags into the water, and cover.
3. After the tea has steeped about 1 hour, pour the sugar into a 2-quart pitcher, then add the tea. The tea should still be warm, so the sugar will dissolve easily.
4. Add the lemon juice. Chill. (http://www.topsecretrecipes.com) Makes 2 quarts.

Watermelon Lemonade with Kiwifruit Splash
Watermelon Lemonade with Kiwifruit Splash
Want to wow friends with a non-alcoholic beverage? Here's one that will do just that!
by: Betty Crocker
Prep Time:10 min
Start to Finish:1 hr 10 min
Makes:12 servings (1 cup each)
4 kiwifruit, peeled and cut into fourths
1 tablespoon sugar
8 cups cubed seedless watermelon
2 cans (12 ounces each) frozen lemonade concentrate
4 cups water
1. Place kiwifruit and sugar in blender. Cover and blend on medium speed just until smooth. Freeze 1 to 2 hours or until firm.
2. Place watermelon in blender or food processor (blender will be full until blended). Cover and blend on medium speed until smooth. Place frozen lemonade concentrate and water in large pitcher. Add watermelon mixture; mix well.
3. Pour watermelon lemonade into glasses. Spoon dollop of frozen kiwifruit on top. Serve immediately.

1 Serving: Calories 190 (Calories from Fat 10); Total Fat 1g (Saturated Fat 0g, Trans Fat ncg); Cholesterol 0mg; Sodium 5mg; Total Carbohydrate 46g (Dietary Fiber 2g, Sugars ncg); Protein 1g Percent Daily Value*: Vitamin A 12%; Vitamin C 78%; Calcium 2%; Iron 4% Exchanges: 3 Fruit; 0 Other Carbohydrate; 0 Vegetable Carbohydrate Choices: nc
*Percent Daily Values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet.
Do-Ahead
Blend the watermelon the day before and store in the fridge.
Special Touch
Garnish each drink with a slice of watermelon and kiwifruit. If you like, moisten rims of the glasses and dip in coarse sugar crystals, then fill with watermelon lemonade.
Success
Don't worry if you find a few seeds in your watermelon. Seedless watermelons actually do have a few seeds; however, they are usually small and edible and will be virtually undetectable by the time you blend the mixture.
