I tried that one, it was great. Here is another great one, it's called Frosty Amour

It's delcious especially on really warm days. Keep posting your experiments.

Sounds really yummy!

It also sounds really sweet, at least for my tastes. I think I will have to try one tonight!

Do you mind if I take it apart and put it together again to make it a bit less sweet?

OK, first, I need glasses. I read it as 1/2 ounce lime. It is 1 and 1/2 ounce for those that have the same reading issues that I do.

Second, very yummy!

The orgeat is a nice add. I also added a dash of angostura and I think it helped give it some depth.

LOL...yea...the 1 1/2 oz of Lime is alot of Lime juice, but Maraschino cherry juice is REALLY sweet. Also, if you go with only 1/2 oz Maraschino cherry juice without the orgeat, what you get is a really tart lemon/lime-ade kind of thing. The orgeat smoothes it out a bit. I like it both with and without the orgeat.
Angostura, I'll have to try that. How much ?

Question :

Are there alot of Tiki drinks that use Maraschino cherry juice ? I don't recall seeing too many. I think it's suh a great drink additive. I put it in Soda sometimes...like fresca (really yummy) , lemonade, limeade...whatever.
