It's citrus season, and that i am adoring the grapefruit, particularly the attractive tart sweet pink ones. once I had the concept for this cocktail, I had no concept that it had a reputation. A hound dog drink? i am not okay versed in cocktails. I solely knew that I needed fruit crush to be in one.
