Loved it!! Thanks for the great recipe!
This is a great one. I have made it with Gin as well and I may like that even more. Gin/vodka, triple sec, grapefruit dress, splash of lime juice, and a sugar rim…..one of the best drinks. Great for summer and fall evenings. Cheers!
Delicious and simple to make, can’t get any better than that. Made the recipe as written and enjoyed it very much!
I tweaked it ever so slightly which turned it into a 5-star. (Alex is so fab TY!). I added a sploosh MORE triple sec because it was a bit sour w the grapefruit juice. If you like a bit of sweetness to your cocktails (I’m a Cosmo girl), I’d say add that sploosh and go a little lite on grapefruit (ie. take 1/2 oz off). If tart is your cocktail muse, then you’ll love it as is.
I like the idea of the recipe 🙂 however to make this cocktail even better I would recommend not using crushed ice, but filling the shaker up with normal ice. This means that it will mix, chill and diulte the drink properly. then double strain at the end to give it a smooth finish without no ice crystals! 🙂
Wow! It’s very smooth and it was a hit. The only adjustment I made was to 2 oz of grapefruit juice. I will definitely be making this again.
I’m making this today!! It’s a great summer cocktail!! Yum!!
I was looking for a way to use up all my extra grapefruits so why not in a cocktail! This was delicious and refreshing! I also preferred it in a short glass over ice. Add a sugar rim if you’re feeling fancy! 😉
I like grapefruit juice, but haven’t been able to find very many drink recipes that I like that use it. This one is a keeper. My version that I can throw together in a minute uses Stoli vodka, Grand Marnier, Minute Maid frozen lemonade concentrate (don’t add water), and Simply Grapefruit refrigerated grapefruit juice.
Perfect recipe! Ingredient proportions just right for us. Citrus season in Florida gives us the opportunity to have freshly squeezed juice for months. We made this with fresh grapefruit and lemon juices, vodka, and grand marnier. We did serve it over an oversized ice cube because the juices were room temperature.
