Notes

Pro Tips

  • Use freshly squeezed grapefruit juice for the best balance of sweetness and tartness.
  • For a drier version, reduce the grapefruit soda and add more sparkling water.
  • Try blanco tequila for a crisp, clean base, or reposado tequila for a slightly richer depth.
  • Chill all ingredients beforehand to maintain the drink’s refreshing crispness.
