This recipe is easy to scale up for larger gatherings. You can mix the base in a pitcher ahead of time and add ice and club soda just before serving.
Try experimenting with different citrus juices like grapefruit or tangerine for new flavor combinations. Fresh herbs like basil or rosemary can also add an interesting twist to the drink.
