This is a great Mexican-inspired alcohol-free cocktail. It’s great for Valentine’s day if you’re not drinking, or you are enjoying a little wine, want an extra refreshing drink, but without the alcohol. This is also an excellent drink if you love citrus (as we do).
Prep time 5 minutes/Cook time 5 minutes/Serves 2
Ingredients:
ice cubes
120ml (2 cups) pink grapefruit juice
1 lime, juiced (you need 20ml/4 tsp), squeezed halves reserved
1½ tbsp clear honey
1 tbsp caster sugar
120ml (1/2 cup) soda water
twist of grapefruit peel, to serve (optional)
Method:
Fill a cocktail shaker or large lidded jar with ice cubes. Add the grapefruit juice, lime juice and honey. Cover, then shake until the shaker feels cold.
Put the sugar on a small plate and run the lime halves over the rims of 2 tumblers. Turn the rims of the tumblers in the sugar to coat.
Put a few ice cubes in each tumbler and strain the grapefruit mixture between them. Top up with soda water and garnish with a twist of grapefruit peel, if you like.
