This drink may surprise you! It’s so appealing you may be surprised to find yourself getting to the bottom of the glass in seconds! This is so good for entertaining, so have a back-up container made and ready just in case you run out. This is easier and less expensive using store bought drink mix, but it still has all the great flavors of making it from scratch.
