    It makes my mouth water too! haha! This reminds me of lemonade, my favorite drink. I love lemons! Instant favorite!

  • whalegeek replied

    erika15, I also thought of lemonade, a favorite of mine, when I took this image but since it’s so fizzy, gin and tonic just came to mind. Thanks for the Fave.
