0DISCLAIMER: I am a home cocktail maker with no real formal training in the American art of Bartending/Mixology. So the purists may reckon that I might be doing some things wrong in this cocktail recipe and if I am let me know and I'll up my game!
In addition, we live a low-carb/low-sugar life so this cocktail may not be sweet enough for you. Regular Simple Syrup (1:1) or (1:2) - made with water and sugar - is commonly used in cocktails and will definitely make this cocktail sweeter. On top of that, you may want to use Sprite or 7up in place of the Spindrift Lemon Limeade that we like to use if that's what takes your fancy.
Either way, enjoy what you create. Sláinte!
