To serve: Use 1/3 cup cordial to 2/3 cup chilled sparkling mineral water or iced water. Serve with thinly sliced lemon and lime.
I made this for a family function and it was a hit!!! I served it ready-mixed in a jug and all the people who had it liked it. This recipe is a keeper and we all will be making it in the future.
Tastes lovely (I do water it down a bit more), I did it with just limes though as that is what I needed to use up. How long does it keep for?
CHELSEA: In a sterilised bottle, it should keep in the fridge for up to a month.
