Refreshing and Crushing it: Grapefruit Crush

This Grapefruit Crush is a perfect cocktail for the weekend or the week day. The fresh juice makes it refreshing and easy to drink. Crushes are a Maryland staple cocktail popular in the summer months but I know they can work anytime.

Are you wondering why my juice isn't pink? It's because it's fresh squeezed. Fresh squeezed grapefruit juice meaning just one grapefruit doesn't mean that you will get the perfect pink color. It does mean that you are getting a fresh drink that's perfectly refreshing!
