3Add ice to each glass then fill with about ¾ of the mixture.
4Top with enough club soda to reach the rim.
5Garnish with grapefruit wedge and sprig of fresh rosemary (optional).
As the trend in cocktails leans more and more toward bitter flavors, it's no surprise that this cocktail is becoming a new favorite beyond Mexico. It's made by mixing tequila with grapefruit juice, lime juice, a bit of sugar, club soda, and some salt. There are slight variations: some recipes include orange juice for an extra touch of sweetness and citrus. And of course, with botanical cocktails all the rage, a sprig of rosemary works perfectly as a garnish. Sometimes it's served in a rocks glass with just a splash of club soda. Other times, it's served without stirring so the pinkish portion remains at the bottom, like a tequila sunrise. Once again, we suggest you have fun, and make it your own!
