Make mine a lime rickey

My childhood was spent in a household where we drank nothing stronger than coffee and tea.

Oh, the things I woulda done just for a taste of a lime rickey.... but putting down my bottle of Jack ain't one of them.

She said she used to drink this before going to work on hot days in a car with no air conditioning. Yet her recipe calls for 2 (32 ounce) bottles of club soda, in addition to the other ingredients, which makes 12 servings. Given that soda goes flat pretty quickly, she must either have had a big family, or she was awfully thirsty those mornings!
