Provided by Jazz Lover

Categories     Beverages

Time 10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 slice ruby red grapefruit (wedge )
kosher salt
6 ounces tequila
1/3 cup ruby red grapefruit vodka
1/4 cup simple syrup
1 cup ruby red grapefruit juice (fresh squeezed or from a carton)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
4 cups ice cubes

Steps:

  • Use the wedge of grapefruit to rub the rims of 6 margarita glases with grapefruit juice.
  • Dip the rims in the kosher salt to coat.
  • Set glasses aside.
  • Place the tequila, vodka, simple syrup, grapefruit juice, lime juice and ice in a bar blender and puree until smooth.
  • Divide the margarita between 6 glasses and garnish with grapefruit quarters.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ruby red grapefruits: Fresh grapefruits provide the best flavor and aroma for your margaritas. Choose grapefruits that are heavy for their size and have smooth, unblemished skin.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients, including the tequila, Cointreau, and grapefruit juice, will help to create a refreshing and flavorful margarita.
  • Use a good quality tequila: The tequila is the base of your margarita, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a tequila that is 100% agave and has a smooth, clean flavor.
  • Don't over-shake your margarita: Over-shaking your margarita can make it watery and dilute the flavor. Shake your margarita just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Garnish your margarita with a lime wedge or a grapefruit twist: This will add a pop of color and flavor to your drink.

Conclusion:

The ruby red grapefruit margarita is a refreshing and flavorful cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. With its tart and sweet flavor, this margarita is sure to please everyone.
