I made this this afternoon and found that the quantity of lemon juice is quite high and that of orange juice is quite low because this tasted like there was only lemon juice in it and no orange. Next time I will either double the quantity of orange juice or halve that of the lemon juice. Yet, it went quite good over lots of chilled cold ice cubes. Thanks, will try again!

This recipe was great. I did double the orange juice and halved the lemon and it was PERFECT! It was also easy for the kids to do. We served it over lots of ice and orange circles. This is now our favorite drink. Thanks for this recipe.

i was juice fasting and needed to get some recipes and found this. It totally made my day! It was so refreshing! I wanted to try it immediately so i just added loads of ice cubes and didnt chill it like in the recipe. i drank 3 servings of this and i still wanted more!

After reading all the other reviews I used the amount of orange juice called for and decreased the lemon juice by 1/2. I also used regular sugar. Next time I will increase the orange juice slightly .

As others suggested I increased the orange juice and decreased the lemon a bit. I also used natural sugar instead of substitute. I dont like to use ice, so I put mine in the freezer for a bit to make it nice and chilled then served. It is great!
