Instructions
- Rub a lime wedge around the edge of each glass and then dip the rim of each glass lightly on a shallow plate of coarsely ground salt.

Notes
- I find this cocktail perfect without added sugar but everyone’s taste is different especially when it comes to grapefruit. If it is too tart for you add a few tablespoons of simple syrup.
- Simple syrup is made by combining equal amounts of water and sugar in a microwaveable measuring cup or bowl. Microwave for 30 second increments until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Simple syrup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one month.
- For those who like a little kick add fresh jalapeno rings to the mix.
