I used to love Snapple Cherry Lime Rickey, but I haven't seen that here in years.

Kool-Aid recently introduced Cherry Limeade. Cherry lime phosphate is one of the first soda water fountain classics.

To make your own phosphates and soda waters:

Gum arabic. To add a velvety smoothness to some drinks. Make certain to get food grade gum arabic, not the art supply for watercolor painting. http://www.pastrychef.com/GUM-ARABIC_p_754.html Or check out specialty cooking shops and high-end liquor stores.

Carbonation kit:

This carbonation kit does not require the small, expensive CO2 cartridges with proprietary fittings of the SodaStream which have to be replaced frequently and UPSed to SodaStream for refilling. Tanks can be taken to the same places where propane and welding tanks are refilled. And you are not married to SodaStream for their limited range of syrups.

You can make any flavored soda water in the world.

Hawaiian Punch, Pixy Stix, Hi-C, Mexican Kool-Aid, flowers, herbs, vegetables, tea .... the sky is the limit. Anything your little heart desires. Get a juicer and let your imagination run wild.
