Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Ruby red grapefruit juice
- 1 cup Sparkling water
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cardamom
- 1 cup Crushed ice
- 2 slices Grapefruit slices
- 1 sprig Fresh mint sprig
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the honey and ground cardamom. Stir until the honey absorbs the spice fully, creating a fragrant, infused syrup.
In a cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and the prepared honey-cardamom syrup. Gently muddle the mint leaves with a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon to release their aroma.
Pour in the ruby red grapefruit juice and add the crushed ice to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake well for 10-15 seconds to mix and chill the ingredients.
Divide the mixture evenly between two serving glasses filled with additional crushed ice.
Top each glass with sparkling water, pouring slowly to preserve the fizz.
Garnish each glass with a slice of grapefruit and a fresh mint sprig for an elegant presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Rock the Qasbah Grapefruit Refreshment!
