Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ounces Alcohol Alternative Spirit optional, such as Seedlip Grove 42
  • 1.5 ounces grapefruit simple syrup
  • 1 ounce grapefruit juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 ounce lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 5 drops saline solution
  • seltzer water to top
  • lime slices for garnish
  • grapefruit slices for garnish
  • lime salt optional, for rimming glasses

Instructions
 

  • Juice one lime and half a grapefruit to get 1 ounce of juice, each.
  • Garnish your glass by using a lime wedge to rim the glass, then pressing it in a small dish filled with homemade lime salt or coarse salt.
  • Fill your glass with ice.
  • Add 1.5 grapefruit simple syrup to glass.
  • Add 1 ounce of lime juice and 1 ounce of grapefruit juice.
  • If using, add 2 ounces of alcohol-free spirit alternative.
  • Add in 5 drops of saline solution.
  • Top with seltzer water to fill the glass.
  • Garnish with lime slice and grapefruit wedge.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

An alcohol-alternative spirit is nice to have, but not necessary. If you donโ€™t have one, you can add in more seltzer water instead.
Do not skip the saline solution! It helps to balance the bitterness and acidity in this mocktail. If you donโ€™t have time to make one, use a small pinch of salt.
