WOW! This was awesome! I'm a margarita lover and this was a great "twist" on that! I don't usually like things too sweet, and this was great. We used fresh lime juice and Patron. What a refreshing summer drink! Can't wait to make them again! -
Very refreshing! I already had a Simple Syrup solution prepared, so I muddled the mint in the syrup, strained and proceeded with the recipe as written. I used Patron Tequila and Sprite for the lemon-lime and the taste was great! Thank you for sharing, kitchenslave03!

I am a former retail management slave who is now a stay at home mom who absolutely loves her job. I have an eight year old, a two year old and a nine month old who all bring their own kind of joy to my life. My favorite thing in the world is to cook. We have a real, from scratch family dinner almost every night. Please don't be offended if I somewhat change a recipe in my review. I look at recipes sort of as guidelines, and alter them according to inspiration. I've received alot of helpful advice from reviews, that's why I share what I've done differently. With my little ones I'm pretty busy, but I LOVE this site and plan on being even more active as they get older.
