"Completely refreshing change of pace to the usual lemonade. The marashino cherry juice adds a delicious color & flavor, and the little bit of fresh squeezed orange & lemon really add to the refreshing homemade taste."

Good flavor and a pretty presentation but a little sweet for my tastes. I would cut back on the sugar added next time.
