Talking about Sonic in the other thread got me thinking.
What is everyone's favorite sonic drink?
They consider themselves to be The Ultimate Drink Stop for having thousands of drink combinations.
Personally, I prefer the Strawberry Limeade, but I've only tried 3 or 4.

coffee.
but it took them 5 minutes to make my cup and I observed a lot of running around with confused looks on faces and filter basket in hand in there as I sat in the drive thru.
how freakin' hard is it to make a pot of coffee?

If I remember correctly, when I worked at a Sonic, we didn't have a coffe machine.

They drive through is insane. There have been several times that I've sat there for 5 minutes without even being recognized and drove off. If I have the patience, it's all about the Cherry Limeade.

I started to panic- thinking "maybe down South they don't have Coffee at fast food places?"
then fate smiled upon me.

As Zack can attest, down here in Texas there has been a Sonic in every hamlet or burg for near twenty years. Until recently its never been a breakfast destination ... hence the lack of coffee demand. Of course the Texas stop sign always has a pot brewing.

if I ever visit there (after I purchase a Stetson and spurs - already have the guns) someone better have a pot on for me.

Sorry, but you can not beat their Cherry Lime Aids...mix that in with Happy Hour every afternoon and you've got a quality beverage. BTW...I don't tip my Sonic server either

That's a play on ATrain saying pouring beer is an art form and you should tip your beer guy.
I generally get a cherry slushy, although I've never tried the cherry limeade.
