Since we are into the summer months, people are eating a little lighter and a little healthier. Probably a good time to take this month's flavor in that direction as well.
Start thinking about Ice's and frozen lemonade, and sherbert and sorbet. Yes, I do beleive that this month shall be the month of ICE! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Have a snow cone, or a frozen lemonade or some sorbet or sherbert, have a lemon ice or italian ice.
Keep yourself [img]cool.gif[/img] when it starts getting hot outside [img]graemlins/sun.gif[/img] !
Of course, as always, the standard chips, chunks, dips, dunks, swirls, twists, cones, cups, sundaes, splits, shakes, malts, sodas, sammi's popsicles, push-ups, smoothies, zebras and everything elses is in as well!
