Our resident bartender, Kyle, provides his twists on the drink as follows:
This drink has a nice fresh taste to it.
I would add in your favorite fresh fruit.
Some Examples would be: Raspberries, Strawberries, blueberries or blackberries.
My favorite twist would be add a few chunks of watermelon to be muddled up and then add a little bit of mint to it as well.
You can replace the simple syrup with honey.
My other twist would to add 3oz of ginger beer and 1 oz of fresh squeezed lemon juice in replace of the lime juice.
