Ingredients
- 2 whole grapefruits, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
- 16 ounces grapefruit juice
- 2 1/2 cups elderflower liqueur
- Half a 750-milliliter bottle bourbon
- Club soda or sparkling water, for pouring
Instructions
- Add a slice of fresh grapefruit to the bottom of a 60-ounce pitcher. Fill a quarter of the pitcher with ice. Add another slice of grapefruit and another layer of ice. Repeat this until the pitcher is full, ending with a slice of grapefruit on top. Pour in the grapefruit juice, elderflower liqueur and bourbon and stir. Add any remaining grapefruit slices, reserving 2 for garnish.
- Slice the 2 remaining grapefruit slices into half-moons and place on the rims of tall pint glasses or wine glasses. Fill the glasses with ice, then fill them halfway with club soda. Top with batched Grass Roots mix and stir. Straws optional!

Delicious!
How would this be with gin? I’m not a bourbon fan. But, think this will be great with another spirit.
Went to buy grapefruits and elderflower liquor right after this episode aired, whoops. So worth it. This is so refreshing and the perfect balance of flavors.
Nothing like a refreshing glass of ice! You were lucky to get half a cup each of the ingredients into that huge pitcher, then you added it to a glass full of ice???
