"Thank God It's Friday"! It's a nice cocktail, but it needed a little bit more of something. (The grapefruits weren't as sweet as I expected.) I added a couple Tablespoons of sugar (simple syrup would work well, too) extra ice and it was perfect. This makes 8 servings. I froze half of this. The next day, it was added to a blender with some ice and it was just as good!

Although my grapefruit were a little less sweet than I'd hoped, this still made a very nice margarita, Like bhnyc, I chose to serve the drink over ice rather than blend the juice, alcohol, and ice. Very refreshing and pretty to look at.

I will never drink plain old margaritas again! Peak-season grapefruit make these sweet and the lime balances it out. These are delicious and you could almost pretend that they are good for you with all that vitamin C in them! :)
The recipe was a little confusing because it says that the drink is blended. The photo in the book shows a drink that is definitely not blended. I chose to not blend them.
