Remember, you can customize this recipe as much as you like. Try different sweeteners such as agave syrup or maple syrup. Substitute any citrus you like. Use whatever fruit is in season, or instead of fruit, try different fresh herbs. Try always to use organic produce to avoid ingesting chemicals that may be on the skin of citrus fruits or on your herbs.
