  1. Love all these cocktail recipes! For my party on Saturday I made low calorie cocktails. One of which was TY KU's Will You Be My TY-tini?
    1.5 oz TY KU Liqueur
    1.5 oz TY KU Soju
    Squeeze of Lime
    Splash of Diet Sprite
    It was a huge it and no one believed me when I told them each drink was under 100 calories! Happy Valentines day girls!
