Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

10 red grapefruit
3/4 cup dry red wine, such as Zinfandel or Cabernet Sauvignon
3/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Cut peel and white pith from 6 grapefruit. Working over bowl, cut between membranes to release segments. Cover and chill segments at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day.
  • Cut remaining 4 grapefruit in half. Using juicer, juice grapefruit. Pour 3/4 cup juice into heavy medium saucepan. (Reserve any remaining juice for another use.) Using spoon, scoop out membranes from grapefruit halves and discard, reserving grapefruit cups. Add wine and sugar to juice in saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Simmer until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Cool wine syrup to room temperature. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover grapefruit halves and wine syrup separately and refrigerate. Bring wine syrup to room temperature before using.)
  • Arrange grapefruit cups on large platter. Divide segments among cups. Drizzle each grapefruit cup with wine syrup and serve.

Fail! My syrup crystallized and I had to throw the whole thing out.

I'm allergic to grapefruit, so I used oranges instead. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I can fix that by reducing the amount of sugar in the syrup.

I substituted white wine for the red wine, and it worked out great!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my syrup didn't turn out as thick as I expected.

I'm not a big fan of grapefruit, but I really enjoyed this dessert. The wine syrup perfectly balanced the tartness of the grapefruit.

This was a refreshing and delicious summer dessert! The grapefruit segments were perfectly sweet and tart, and the wine syrup added a lovely flavor. I will definitely be making this again!
