    I am allergic to citrus fruits so I had to alter the ingredients. I use pineapple chunks in place of the lemon and it really was refreshing. I let my 4 children taste it and they all liked it and even said they would drink it again. This is something I never would have thought of. - 10/9/07

    I have also added ground fresh ginger root for a little kick ~ strain through cheese cloth or coffe filter first. - 1/19/09
