Yeah, I tend to sort of look at the recipe and see if the amount of lime juice seems right. I mean, if it calls for 1.5 ounces in a 4 ounce drink, that's a lot. If it's 1/2 ounce and there are other major amounts of pinapple juice and other sweet items, you can leave it as is.

The other secret ingredient in these recipes that you amy not think about is crushed ice. It really makes a difference.
