Sorry, this didn't work for us. It had great, fresh flavor and we loved the addition of the ginger and the fact that it uses agave, but the "texture" was not pleasant. It had a "gritty" texture from the pieces of lemon rind. I have a very powerful blender, so it wasn't that I couldn't get it smoother.
