I don't know how to feel about lemon lime milkshakes, to be honest.

I always thought it was mint

You're right. It's been mint since the 1980s, but it started out as lemon lime sherbert and vanilla, then vanilla with green color added, before Ronald decided on mint.

I knew they tasted different before! I was disappointed when I tasted mint.
