Every now-and-then Ivan and I have a craving for a southern treat. When we lived in Lubbock, we loved to go to Sonic during happy hour for a quick and cheap drink. We loved that you could add any flavor to your drink and customize it to your personal liking. However, we quickly realized that Sonic is unique to the Southern states...most people in Oregon have never heard of it! You can imagine how excited Ivan and I were when we heard the rumor that a Sonic was being built 5 miles from our home!!! Now when we feel the craving, we can take a little drive and indulge in a Vanilla Cream Dr. Pepper!
The funny part is that the people working here have no idea what a Vanilla Cream Dr. Pepper is! They always ask us if we want coffee creamer to add to our drinks. HA! Now we just ask for a Vanilla Dr. Pepper with coffee cream...we get some confused remarks and looks, but it tastes good! There is still nothing like a New Mexico or Texas Sonic, but we reminisce our fun memories of dating and first being married while there!
Go ahead, get one today...a Vanilla Cream Dr. Pepper!!!
That is SO funny!! I LOVE vanilla cream root beers!!! We haven't been to the Sonic here in Oregon yet...there's one in Hillsboro...about 5 miles from us....we'll have to give it a try....we should go together...in SEPERATE cars...you ask for a vanilla cream drink and then we'll go RIGHT behind you and ask for one!!! Who's the weird one NOW Sonic!! :)
