Psssssst!

Secret Memo to my BFF Daaaaaahhhn:

I conducted highly scientific studies of the summer happiness drink I suggested previously and have concluded:

1.Limes and super fine sugar are a fine subsitute for rose's lime syrup, in fact is you opt for this route, substitute the cloyingly sweet 7-up with club soda. Don't be afraid to be generous with the bitters.

2. A highly acceptable alternative to the above? Kooba (emphasis on the Koo) Leebras! Indeed! Cola, Rum, and lime? It doesn't get happier then that.
