Great, but maybe a tad sweet

Living in a culinary wasteland, I rarely expect to find all the ingredients. I had to substitute lime marmalade for key lime preserves -- that might have made the result a little sweet. I also got tired of zesting and squeezing all those little key limes, so I gave up after three or four and used a regular lime instead. Overall, everyone was very pleased, but I think I would have preferred a slightly less sweet and slightly milder flavor. Maybe a trace less zest and juice next time. Also, I did not think the (lemon-lime) seltzer added much in the way of flavor.
