Batch Recipe - Increase this recipe 6x to make a pitcher recipe that serves six cocktails. You can do this in advance and store it in the fridge. I recommend not adding ice until you are ready to serve so you don't dilute your drink.
Lemon Juice - If you find this recipe a bit too sweet, try adding some fresh lemon juice for more acidity, tartness and balance.
Variations - One variation of this recipe is to add a dash of grenadine to make it bright red (the color of the University of Alabama). Just stir to achieve a bright red color or add the grenadine into the cocktail shaker. Another popular variation is to divvy the recipe into shot glasses and serve it as a shooter instead of a cocktail.
