Tips & Tricks – Grapefruit Gin Fizz
• Use freshly squeezed grapefruit juice. This makes the flavor vibrant and less bitter than bottled juice.
• Taste as you go and adjust the sweetness. If it’s too tart, add a touch of simple syrup or honey to sweeten it up.
• Add the club soda last (just before serving) to keep the bubbles lively.
• A grapefruit wedge, slice, or sprig of rosemary elevates the look!
Want to Change it Up?
You can easily change up this Grapefruit Gin Fizz to suit your mood:
• For a refreshing mocktail, simply leave out the gin and add a splash of lemonade.
• For an herbal twist, add muddled fresh basil, rosemary, or thyme with the gin.
