It was okay. Maybe my kids were just too young to appreciate it!

easy to make, tastes great! So funny to watch people trying to suck it through the straws!!! I used red & green grapes cut in half instead of berries.

This was an awesome addition to my April Fool's meal tonight, all inspired by this website. Thanks for the idea! This one really fooled everyone.
