This is perfect as written. Make sure you use fresh limes and good rum – it matters! This is a perfect, refreshing cocktail!
I thoroughly enjoyed this. It was light and refreshing; a perfect post work cocktail while I worked on dinner. I chose to garnish with cherries instead of a lime and used Diet 7-up in place of club soda. Cheers!
