Grapefruit Fizz
San Pellegrino kindly sent me some Sparkling Grapefruit and I decided to do a cocktail so I thought of a Grapefruit Fizz. Amazing flavor, I absolutely loved it. I am a big fan of grapefruit as long as it is not too bitter. This beverage is the perfect balance of sweet and tart and is made with 16% grapefruit juice from concentrate.
The addition of the Triple Sec orange flavor and the lemonade flavored vodka combine to make this drink super yummy! It’s fun to mix things up and try new and different combinations of flavors, not only in your drinks but in all the creations in the kitchen!
I wanted to enhance the already wonderful flavor and I think I nailed it with this cocktail. A perfect porch sipper for spring/summer!! Enjoy!!

I LOVE all of the San Pellegrino sodas… in fact I have a 6 pack of the grapefruit soda in my fridge right now! I actually used some to make some Palomas over the weekend, but I’ll have to try your recipe next!

This is a great recipe! Thanks so much for sharing, I look forward to trying it! I recently discovered a similar drink you may like called a Paloma; it’s a mix of grapefruit soda, lime & tequila. Probably one of my personal summer favourites! 🙂

I LOVE grapefruits and grapefruit juice! Recently I have been having a grapefruit every day for breakfast, and my mom passed on her love of grapefruit juice and vodka on to me, so this would be the perfect cocktail for me!

Kristina says
I would say YES, you nailed it – I am not a big fan of the sweet cocktail, this sounds perfect. I love grapefruit, I love sparkly, I love vodka.
