Honey-Scented Grapefruit Cocktail

A twist on the classic Greyhound, pink grapefruit juice is sweetened ever so delicately with pure honey and served with fresh grapefruit twists. With or without vodka, this is one standout cocktail.

There's really not much more I can say about this drink. It's glorious in its simplicity. Grapefruit juice is delightfully tangy, and the addition of sweet honey softens the tang just enough, but not too much. I prefer pink grapefruit juice 100% of the time, but regular grapefruit juice works too!

Honey-Scented Grapefruit Cocktail

4 cups pink grapefruit juice, or grapefruit juice of choice
1-2 tablespoons good quality honey
Grapefruit zest strips for serving (use a vegetable peeler and then fold the strips into accordions before skewering)

Combine the grapefruit juice and honey in a large pitcher or punch bowl. Serve over ice and garnish with grapefruit twists.
Makes 4 cups
