I thought this recipe had a great start, but was WAYYY too sweet. However, once I took the original recipe and used club soda instead of diet lemon-lime soda, it was much improved. Definitely not the worst low cal margarita-ish beverage I've ever had. I'll be making mine at home this way from now on. Adding 1/2 oz of triple sec isn't a bad idea, either... just adds a few more calories.

I love this recipe. I used the lemonade from Trader Jo's that does not use Aspartame! Awsome!

Fantastic. I quadrupled to make a pitcher and it got rave reviews at a recent party. I agree that you would never know it was low cal!
