Happy Labor Day weekend everyone! We got out of work early - wooo! So I decided to stop over at one of our favorite stores - Rocket Fizz. Nothing like a hot day and a cool drink. I had a bit of anxiety picking out drinks. I'm surprised how difficult it can be to go outside my comfort zone and choose unfamiliar items. It's amazing how much we cling to the familiar.
Anyway the always helpful staff helped me pick out my first drink. It's a Saranac 1888 Shirley Temple. I've never had an alcoholic Shirley Temple, so perhaps I should have waited to try this one, but the cashier said it's absolutely delicious.
Thank God for twist caps. Anyway this gave me a very shocking jolt of sweet at the first sip, but a good jolt. It's got a cherry on it, which means it's supposed to be a cherry sweet. I usually hate cherry flavored anything because it reminds me of medicine, but this is everything delicious you would want in a sweet cherry soda. Best part is the aroma. I love taking a sniff before I take a swig. For someone who doesn't like super sweet stuff or cherry, that lady was right, this stuff is dynamite.
All the sweeter, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful weekend.
