Tips & Notes
- Pink or red grapefruit gives a sweeter, rosier drink than white grapefruit, so taste the juice before deciding on agave. Tart white grapefruit usually needs the full 2 tbsp.
- Shake only the grapefruit and lime juices with ice, and add the sparkling water in the glass afterward. Shaking soda in a closed shaker builds pressure and flattens the fizz.
- For a classic paloma-style rim, rub a lime wedge around each glass and dip it in flaky salt mixed with a little grated grapefruit zest.
