Ginger-Grapefruit Fizz image

Sometimes it's hard to find a special, non-alcoholic beverage for parties that isn't a punch. That's why I love this grown-up bubbly drink that offers a little tartness from the grapefruit and spice from the ginger. -Dawn Viola, Clermont, Florida

The ginger grapefruit fizz was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less grapefruit juice next time.

This ginger grapefruit fizz was a refreshing and delicious drink! I loved the combination of sweet and tart flavors. It was also very easy to make, and I appreciated that I could use fresh or frozen grapefruit.
