This is easy to make and quite delicious. I made this for an afternoon barbeque and everyone loved it! It is also delicious at the beach!!! I couldn't find the zen vodka, however plain or citrus worked just fine! Perfect!!! Rave reviews from guests!
Great for afternoon sipping. A little sweet so serve with lots of ice. Do the math, it's not strong less than an 4/5 oz vodka + 2/5 glass of wine/serving, so it won't get you silly, but a few of them will relax you while you kick back. Certainly worth making.
