"Like the Drink?"

We all know that my name is quite original. While I love its uniqueness, I am used to repeating it during introductions. After repeating my name to Hope at the football game, he replied, “Oh, like the drink!” I was confused and had no clue what drink he was speaking of, but he knew my name, so I just let it go at that.
Sunday we were in the grocery store picking up a few items when my teammate, Matt, handed me a can of soda. It was called Mirinda! Yes, it's spelled differently, but I believe it may be pronounced the same, according to Hope! Of course, I bought a can and it was good! It tastes a lot like the orange soda we have back at home! So, maybe now I should just say "like the drink" when introducing myself!
