I'm talking about making your own vanilla coke.

Go to a fast food restaurant and get a cup of regular Coke ( no diet or Pepsi) at their soft drink dispensing area. Then pour in a small spoon of real Vanilla Syrup and stir. Cherry lovers can add simple Cherry syrup.

The canned stuff is not good!

Waffle House makes their own vanilla and cherry coke in each restaurant going this way...

Or you can add some vanilla vodka. Tastes the same as vanilla coke.

When I was a kid, we called vanilla Cokes "dishwater."

The local Mom and Pop store, which was really a bookie joint - but I digress, had an old-fashioned marble topped soda fountain.

They'd put Coke syrup, seltzer water and vanilla together and it was like nectar of the Gods. Add your 10-cent comic to the mix and it was kid heaven.
