Ingredients
For serving
- 1 wedge of grapefruit for rimming the glass
- 1 - 2 Tbsp Flaky sea salt for rimming the glass
- slices of lime and grapefruit for garnish
Drink
- 1 1/2 oz tequila blanco may also be called silver tequila (about 3 Tbsp)
- 2 oz fresh grapefruit juice (about 1/4 cup)
- 1/2 oz fresh lime juice (about 1 Tbsp)
- 1/4 - 1/2 oz agave nectar or agave syrup (about 1/2 - 1 Tbsp)
- ice for serving
- 2 oz topo chico or other sparkling mineral water
Instructions
Prepare
- Run grapefruit wedge around the rim of a rocks glass (or your desired glass), wetting it with the juice.
- Add sea salt to a shallow plate, invert the glass and dip the wet rim into the salt.
- Set the garnishes aside for now.
Make the drink
- To the prepared glass, add tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and agave nectar.
- Stir well until the agave has dissolved.
- Add some ice cubes, then the sparkling water to top it off.
- Garnish with the grapefruit and lime slice, and serve cold.
Notes
- Large batch instructions:
- This recipe makes one (roughly 6.5 oz) cocktail.
- You can make a large batch with any multiple of the recipe, you just need to multiply all the ingredient amounts by the same number, and you’ll want to make sure you have a large enough pitcher to hold everything.
- To a large pitcher, add tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and agave nectar.
- Stir together, then cover and chill for several hours, or up to 1-2 days.
When ready to serve, stir really well, then pour the contents of the pitcher over ice into glasses. Top off glasses with the sparkling water, add garnishes and serve!
