First one I made per the instructions, came out ok, but didn't fill the glass...so I didn't take a pic of it. So, for the second, I increased all the ingredients by 50%. Filled the glass, but when it came time to mix the top layer I came up a bit short on the crushed ice. I used what I had, as i didn't want the bottom to melt and dilute while I crushed more. You can see the top syrupy layer (denser than the bottom) starting to sink. A few minutes after this pic was taken, it was all the same color. I had to work on the clothes washer (look up how to bring up fault codes, look up fault codes, remove water lines and clean screens....you know how hard it is to do that after two...technically 2.5 since I increased the second...of these?) so I did't bother to make another. Next time. howlinowl
