I just had a wonderful holiday weekend with my family. Even though we had 100+ degree temperatures we made the most of it with lots of swimming and boating. We also beat the heat with homemade ice cream, mojitos, and chilled white wine. It was pretty fantastic!
I am on a grapefruit kick right now. Once I realized you could peel and eat grapefruits rather than using a specialty spoon, it was on. It is a labor of love to peel one, but it is worth it in the end.

I don’t love sweet drinks, so this margarita was perfect. The ruby red grapefruit juice and the triple sec add just enough sweetness, without any other added sugar. You could blend this with ice but I prefer it on the rocks. There is a good amount of booze involved, so be careful!
The Perfect Pairing for Grapefruit Margaritas is a summer party. They are refreshing and perfect for hot weather. Try these out if you are looking for a variation to the original margarita. I prefer the grapefruit variety!
