Very refreshing! I used lime juice and dark rum. Thanks for a lovely drink Mersaydees.

I have to agree with Boomette...I usually have more alcohol content to other ingredients, but that was easily fixed! I used Bacardi dark rum (more than called for in the recipe) instead of myers, and eliminated the sugar. Garnished with an orange slice and a kumquat slice! With the adjustments in sugar and rum, this was perfect! Thanks for sharing! Made for 123 Hit Wonders Tag.

This has a really good taste but it's not enough potent. And another time I would omit the sugar cause that way it was a little too sweet. And also I would add more lemon juice. Thanks Mersaydees. Made for 123 hit wonders

A great tart and tasty drink! I used fresh orange juice and just a small dash of grenadine. I enjoyed this refreshing drink very much - thanks for posting the recipe!
