You know those foods that remind you of your childhood and bring back special memories?! Grapefruit does that for me. I have a memory of my Dad probably when I was 3, maybe 4, and we sat in front of the television at the Birch Street House with a sports game on. He sprinkled sprinkle some salt on the top (don’t knock it until you try it) and cut each piece for me so we could share. I don’t think I have ever told him that.
I eat my weight in grapefruit each year and my little girl might have inherited my obsession. Although, I don’t put salt on ours…all the time.
Fresh lemonade is one of my guilty pleasures and I wanted to come up with a Grapefruit version. I scoured everywhere and couldn’t find a recipe! I made about 6 batches until I found the ratio and taste I like. With my husband and kids as the official taste testers. My Violet loves that its “pink” lemonade too. Make it for your next picnic or dinner party!
