Cooling Summer Drink
 

I can't go to www.steamykitchen.com that I don't glean a few recipes.

I saw this and thought it would be the perfect summer drink. I finally
got around to making it today.

Got the goodies together.

All blended up

Strained it over a little, well...a smidgen more than a little, gin.
This is so refreshing and lite, I won't be mixing my drink with tonic
much this summer. I used Splenda not sugar.

This is the recipe you posted the other day, right. I have to get some
club soda to try it. My bottle is still from New Years eve and it's gone
flat.
