This is the perfect summer refresher, fruity but more bitter than sweet, which is a wonderful way to quench the thirst in the heat.

I don't know about you but when I am hot and thirsty I don't want anything too sweet.  If you agree then this cocktail is for you.  We served these up poolside on Father's Day.  Amy and I loved them.  My friend, Miss Sue?  Not so much.....she prefers a sweeter cocktail.
