It's a bit warm here this afternoon and this was the perfect pick-me up! Instead of superfine sugar, I dissolved the sugar in a cup of hot water, then put it in the blender with three additional cups of water. Thanks this is a keeper! -
Very Refreshing! I made half a recipe which worked well in my blender. Since I did not have superfine sugar, I used regular granulated sugar and blended it in the blender a little before I added the liquid ingredients. Thanks Juenessa! -
This was awesome, just the right mix of sweet and sour!!!! -
