Based on the comments, I used 20ml Lime, 10ml Grenadine, 10ml Sugar Syrup and kept the rest the same. It was really good. (Big Juicy)

Oohh! Oof! I agree with Stephen. The initial flavor burst is lovely, then it goes puckering. Worth tweaking though. Used unsweetened cranberry juice.

Slightly too tart for me. I prefer it WITHOUT the lime juice.
