Cooking Notes
How big are the glasses and how much ice is necessary to make the prescribed 4 servings?
I think I'd also try a frozen batch as cubes.
Garnish with a sprig of mint or Thai basil.
Too sweet, add less sugar, or more juice.

love the ice cube idea - flavored cubes are so good to add a little extra oomph to summer drinks.
