I thought I would like this drink. But, too sweet. And the addition of the egg white left a coating in my mouth along with the syrupy sweetness of the juice and melon liquor.

I would try this with less melon liquor, no egg white, and perhaps some lime juice.

As soon as I made this, I knew it would be too sweet. I left out the egg, added half a like, and Bob's your uncle.
