Fix and swap

Didn't come out right? Fix it.

  • Too sweet

    Add more cucumber or a squeeze of blood orange to pull the bottle back toward crisp.

  • Too sharp

    Add a few cucumber pieces or a small carrot wedge to soften the edge.

  • No carrot?

    Use sweet potato. Keeps sweetness, but changes body and aroma.

  • No blood orange?

    Use orange. Keeps brightness with a slightly different citrus edge.
