I thought it needed a little more sugar and ice but that is just my opinion. My husband and I both thought the drink was very refreshing and delicious! Just like you buy at a smoothie resturant for a fourth the price!

Did I love this drink!!! I had friends over for a barbecue and it was so hot! Nothing is more refreshing than a cool fruit drink. I did use Splenda instead of sugar, but it tasted just the same because I used sugar for the children. We couldn't tell the difference. Thank you so much for cooling off our evening!!!
