you catch sight of an evergreen minivan pull around the corner.

bees and their friends bustle and buzz around in search of the source of the sugar they know is near as you pour a quick splash into a cup.

bringing it to your lips, you're hit with a blend of lemons and the sunscreen you hastily rubbed in before going out in the summer sun.

a small sip has your jaw clenching just so, letting you know you have the perfect ratio of tart and sweet.

after filling a fresh cup, the juice on your hands nearly sticks you to the table as you push yourself up to offer the refreshment to your next customer.
