  1. Yowsa - this is a good drink - but strong! I made 1/4 of the recipe using about 16 oz of vodka. Served over lots of ice this was so refreshing, and just loved the "drunken cherries". I think it would be great to use this method with tequila and limeade, or amaretto and orange juice. Thanks for posting this recipe! Made for Spring PAC 2009
