I made this drink for my hubby for our Valentines day dinner. He loved it and so did I.I chilled the glass in the freezer, rimmed it with sugar and decorated it with a slice of lemon.

My husband prepared this drink to serve 20 adults as a house drink for Thanksgiving Dinner - doubling/tripling/quadrupling it. We served it in a punch bowl, and garnished the punch cups with lemon/sugar rim in advance, and skewers of marinated dried cherries. Also froze lemon slices in decorative ice molds to keep the punch chilled. We handed each adult a drink as they arrived - everyone loved it and it got the party going!
