                I made this recipe and it turned out great. I cut the amount of sugar to 2 cups, and it was great, as I don't like things that are super sweet. I poured in more vodka, and that also turned out great. Main thing is get really good lemons, and let those bad boys sit - up to 2 weeks, to really get a lot of lemony goodness.
