If I’m not a fan of agave or maple syrup in drinks, would this recipe still work well with simple syrup?

Instead graving a glass of wine this is much muuuuuch better delicious,healthy, nutritious has everything.

Love everything you give us.
Thank thank thank YOU!
This drink is my favorite for the summer. It's also fun to make when you have some people over! The lime and sugar rim on the glass not only gives it an extra punch of the lime flavor at the top, but also makes the drink super cute in pictures.
Very nice and refreshing!
This new website feature of serving sizes and an amazon cart is super cool and easy to access. Loved the idea and keep up the good work sadia :)

Been following the Youtube Channel for quite a while now. Funny background story, I was sick and in-search of something that will make me more healthy at that time when I discovered Pick Up Limes, ended up binge watching all the videos from recipes to minimalism and viola! been hooked ever since. Thank you guys! More power :)
