    I enjoy all your alcoholic recipes. This one with the sparkling wine, rum, lime and mint sounds very refreshing. I have never tried coconut flavored rum.

    I like it when you find a good, useful bottle of wine for under $20. I always enjoy your drink recipes, and this sounds refreshing. I wonder how it would be if you added 7-up to make it more crisp and bubbly.
