# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like vacation in a glass but takes less time to make than ordering takeout.
  • No hangover, no guilt, just pure tropical refreshment that works for literally any gathering.
  • Fresh lime juice makes this taste so alive that people will ask if you're secretly a bartender.
02 -
  • Fresh lime juice makes an enormous difference—I learned this the hard way when someone asked why their homemade version tasted flat compared to mine.
  • Pre-chilling your glasses in the freezer for even 10 minutes keeps this drink colder longer and tastes noticeably better.
03 -
  • Shake with confidence and vigor for at least 10 seconds; this chills the drink and slightly dilutes it just enough to balance the tartness perfectly.
  • Fresh juice tastes completely different from bottled, and people notice—if you're making this for people you want to impress, squeeze those limes yourself.
