Other than daylight, palm trees and Disney World, when I think Florida my brain goes to grapefruit juice. For reasons unknown, I seldom get it at home, however it beat my staple rundown when we hit the southern states.
This Grapefruit Margarita is a tropical makeover of a work of art, remarkably reviving and easy to make. No blends were hurt really taking shape of this mixed drink and in around 5 minutes you can be tasting this tropical excursion in a glass.
You can crush your own grapefruit juice, however I've observed Indian River brand to be a decent decision for crisp tasty taste. There's not a viable alternative for crisp crushed lime squeeze however. That is an unquestionable requirement.
- ruby red grapefruit juice
- fresh lime juice
- Triple Sec
- silver or white Tequila
- simple syrup (recipe below)
- lime and grapefruit wedges for serving
- You’ll also need ice cubes and (optional) salt to rim the glass.
- SIMPLE SYRUP:
- Simple syrup adds just the right amount of sweetness to the margaritas. It’s made with equal parts water and sugar.
- For a batch of Grapefruit Margaritas, add one cup of water and one cup of sugar to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil then simmer 2-3 minutes or until the sugar dissolves then remove from the heat and cool.
Instructions:
- Blend the grapefruit juice, lime juice, tequila, triple sec and simple syrup in whatever size pitcher suits your crowd.
- Line a plate with coarse salt then run a lime wedge over the rim of each glass and press the glass into the salt. Add ice to the glass, pour the Grapefruit Margarita in and serve with an extra lime wedge and (optional) a slice of grapefruit.
- This tasty margarita needs a good sidekick like classic homemade Guacamole and because life goes on after happy hour, here’s a one pan delicious Mexican Chicken Casserole.
- Enjoy!
