This cocktail was a disaster! It was too strong, too sweet, and the flavors didn't mix well together.

This cocktail is not very good. The flavors don't blend well together and it's too sweet.

This cocktail is not as flavorful as I expected. I would recommend adding more lime juice or using a different type of fruit.

I found this cocktail to be a bit too strong. I would recommend using less cachaça or diluting it with club soda.
