    Notes

    Some tips to keep in mind:
    Using fresh lime juice can make a huge difference in taste.
    Adjust the amount of cranberry juice based on personal preference for sweetness.
    Test a drop of food coloring in water first to see the effect you like.
    For a kid-friendly version, skip the alcohol. You can replace vodka and schnapps with soda for a fizzy twist!
    Have fun experimenting with the flavors, and remember to enjoy responsibly! 🎉
