Delightfully lightly fizzy! Started to make this, realized I was out of soda , used tonic instead. Made it a bit bitter but not bad. Glad to have made x 1.5 as it was gone in about 5 minutes! ♡

What difference does 10ml of soda water make in a drink that contains 87ml of other liquids?
Isn't this just a variant of a Margarita?
