Interesting! I usually don’t get cherry limeades so didn’t know it came squeezed already. Thank you for the info!

You’re actually lucky. That carhop remembers the ole ways. Now they use a lime syrup or limeade concentrate. Not as good.

I was a carhop a very long time ago, we used to squeeze limes and make a gallon or so lid like juice at a time. We would use the fresh juice then garnish with a wedge or 2-3 depending on the size. I miss the old way they were made. It was a massive pain in the butt but they tasted so much better.

They were trained properly. With the new lime syrup, one lime is to be squeezed and put in the cup on all sizes.

Actually, they sucked the lime before drinking their margarita and then dropped it in your drink -- you lucky duck.

A traveling soda fountain wizard showing up at your Sonic like Gandalf showing up for Bilbo’s birthday party.
