TRICK OR TREAT?  McDonald's Frozen Strawberry Lemonade

It's summer.  It's hot.  What is better than a nice frozen beverage?  But is it worth the calories?

The new McDonald's Frozen Strawberry Lemonade is fat free, but it still sports a whopping  270 calories for the SMALL!  That is 12 oz.  Extrapolating the other sizes, I calculated:

Small (12 oz) McDonald's Frozen Strawberry Lemonade is 270 calories!
Medium (16 oz) McDonald's Frozen Strawberry Lemonade is 360 calories!!
Large ( 20 oz)  McDonald's Frozen Strawberry Lemonade is 450 calories!!!  EEK!!!

So if you are watching calories you might want to bypass McDonald's. A low calorie option would be the Sonic Diet Cherry Limeade.  A Route 44 ( and I can't drink 44 oz) is only 26 calories.
