    I was excited to make this drink instead of the standby margarita. Unfortunately it was a disappointment for us.

    This was amazing! I followed the recipe completely and just loved the flavor. It was a little sweet for me so I cut back on the infused simple syrup in my glass but cannot wait to make this for guests!

    This was fantastic. I didn't have any cilantro, but it was good nonetheless. Also great with gin. =+
