I really like the idea of this cocktail, but I think it needs a bit more lime juice to really bring it home. As is it feels a bit like under salted food - all the flavours are there but they're muted and undeveloped.

What a surprise!
Refreshing, quenching, balsamic.
Like a tropical lemony popsicle with licorice stick.
