Grapefruit Margarita
With an added kick of flavor from the grapefruit juice, this refreshing take on the margarita is excellent for daytime sipping all summer long. For a bit more sweetness (and a bright color), try ruby-red grapefruit juice.
Ingredients
- 1 quart fresh grapefruit juice
- 2 cups Simply Limeade
- 2 cups white tequila
- 1 cup fresh lime juice
- ¼ cup triple sec
- 5 limes, quartered into wedges
- Finely ground Hawaiian pink salt, for serving (also available at Trader Joe’s)
- Ice, for serving
Directions
Mix all liquid ingredients in a large pitcher and chill in refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Taste for flavor, adding more tequila if needed.
Rim your glasses by dampening them with a lime wedge then dipping them in finely ground pink salt. Serve each margarita over ice with a wedge of lime.
