This is very refreshing, but just missed a little something. I might do as suggested below and add more cherry juice next time. I did make one gaff, which was to leave the lime slices in the pitcher, and it got very bitter (so don't do that!). Otherwise, refreshing :)

I'm not giving this a star rating. My copy of this recipe I got from Light & Tasty magazine. My copy says use sugar substitute. I hope to try this recipe soon. Thanks for posting this recipe! Christine (internetnut)

Added more cherry juice because I like it sweeter, but so good and refreshing.

Excellent drink! I can just taste how refreshing this is going to be when I make it in the summer. The cherry and lime flavors go together so well. I am going to be making this often!
