Have you tried the Cherry Lime (whatevers) at Ruby's Diner too? If so, do ya like. Thx.

Sadly, no maraschino cherries or lime wedges to be had at Dolores either. :-( God, now I really want to go to Sonic!

So what makes a cherry lime rickey 'rickeyfied' is the phospheric acid? (I always thought the 'rickey' was the carbonation! Ooop.) I HEART the cherry-<b>limeades</b> at Sonic too. And I similarly re-navigate my drive when there's one within 5-10 miles. Does Dolores' throw in maraschino cherries and fresh lime wedges? -- SlowCalorie Ahh, okay.

I've never had their Rickey (do they have them?); the closest thing that I've had there was their cherry-limeade, which I love! Not as good as the cherry-limeade I had in Kansas City (cherry soda with a scoop of lime sherbert), but good enough that every time I see a Sonic, I get one. Dolores' Rickey was really good, but they were really heavy on the syrup; if you go there, I'd ask them to go a little light. Kevin's description of the Lime Rickey was that it tasted technicolor. I'd say that Dolores' were better than Sonic. I love Sonic. I’ve never had their Rickey (do they have them?); the closest thing that I’ve had there was their cherry-limeade, which I love!
