The 5-Minute Warning

SERVES 4 TO 6

Many of us have issued a 5-minute warning, an advance notice designed to avoid a public meltdown of gargantuan proportions when pulling a child (or partner, or spouse) away from an enjoyable activity. The deliciously light and joyful flavors of this cocktail should take the edge off when the meltdown ensues anyway.
