Yummy for the 4th of for any other summer day! I *heart* cherry limeade!

I wonder if you could do this with strawberry or raspberry somehow instead. Cherry flavoring always reminds me of cough syrup. Gag. Ack. Anyway, it looks yummy, thanks for posting. =)

I love limeades. My favorite is strawberry. I used to always get one at sonic but since they dont have one around here I should start makeing my own.
