Ruby red grapefruit is such a treat when it’s in season. The sweet-tasting juice, combined with fresh, pine-scented rosemary and crisp, chilled vodka, are the star ingredients for our ruby red grapefruit cocktail recipe!

Fresh ruby red grapefruit juice is sure to tingle your taste buds, and the rosemary taste (which reminds us of Christmas trees), will balance the bitter in our cold weather cocktail. The recipe is super simple, and it’s a fun, clean-tasting beverage to enjoy with friends.

Top each cocktail with a sprig of rosemary to really dress this drink up.
