Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 large grapefruits
  • Optional: 1-2 teaspoons honey or agave syrup for sweetness
  • Optional: A few mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

STEP 1: PREPARE THE GRAPEFRUITS

  • Start by washing the grapefruits thoroughly under cool running water. Once clean, cut each grapefruit in half.

STEP 2: JUICE THE GRAPEFRUITS

  • Using a citrus juicer or reamer, extract the juice from each grapefruit half. If you don’t have a juicer, you can simply squeeze the halves by hand over a bowl.

STEP 3: STRAIN THE JUICE

  • Pour the juice through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any pulp and seeds, ensuring a smooth drink.

STEP 4: SWEETEN TO TASTE

  • Take a moment to taste the juice. If it’s too tart for your liking, add honey or agave syrup to sweeten it, stirring well to combine.

STEP 5: SERVE

  • Pour the freshly squeezed juice into glasses. If you’d like, garnish with a sprig of fresh mint for an extra touch.
  • For the best flavor, serve immediately over ice.
  • This recipe yields about 2 cups of fresh grapefruit juice, perfect for 2-3 servings.
