I cannot believe I’ve never had one of these easy (no fuss) cocktails. I’ll blame my “I hate grapefruit juice” phase that lasted longer than it needed to. With grenadine, I usually slowly pour at the end but for this baby, I added to the shaker with the vodka and juice. Hence that COLOR. Thank you BG Reynolds for the bar syrups! The sweetness of the syrup contrasted with the bitterness of the grapefruit, almost poetically.

Editor's Note
A straightforward, tart refresher. The citrus vodka amplifies the grapefruit's natural bite for a clean, summer-ready profile.

This sounds like a wonderfully refreshing choice for a warm day! Do you have a favorite brand of citrus vodka you like to use for this?
