    A nice, healthy pick-me-up this afternoon. I cut back the water to 1 cup and served without the ice. Will make this again. THANKS! Made for Bevy tag.

    This was easy to put together. I thought it was alot of water, so only used 1 cup. This was not sweet, but was quite refreshing. Thanks Rita!

    Woke this morning with a bit of a tummy ache - a night of too little sleep and too many hot peppers. Decided to try this a a morning pick me up. Followed Sharon's suggestion and cut the water to 1 cup. Light and refreshing, this reminded me of the beverages typically sold in Mexico. I loved the addition of the ginger, with was very soft on the palatte. Aside from tasting delicious, it was quite soothing. Thanks Rita!
