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.
