Sunday May 13th 2012, 8:27 pmIt stands tall as the heat rises this afternoon. Summer is setting in, and before my eyes it beckons like some shining proud tower made of clear crystal. Cold as ice, the chill causes condensation, like sweat, to bead up and run down in streams along the glass curves of its body as I hold it with increasingly numbing fingers. Contained within is an exacting formula, dark as black coffee, but sweet. When taking a swig, it gives a rush and crisp to the tongue’s taste-buds. And hits the belly with a deep satisfaction that releases an instant sigh. The sweetness is the proper kind, not the icky cornsyrupy flavor that comes with most other variations. There is no strange sour aftertaste build up because its blended with real sugar, natural for the most part. The fizz bubbles between my teeth, which is always a somewhat surprising pleasant sensation, and always following a few gulps brings a belch regardless of polite company or not. A bit trite of a pleasure, but a pleasure none the less on a warm Sunday.
