I made the recipe for a party and everyone loved it. Friends called to get the recipe for their next get together. This drink is great for a summer party and with bubbly water or with champagne it is refreshing. I served it with grilled lemon flank steak with lemon dipping sauce and shrimp with rhemolade sauce, also Jack Cheese Crisps.07/10/07
