Tips
- I use about 2 to 3 large grapefruits, but you may need more or less depending on the size.
- You can also use a mix of any citrus for this recipe, if you want to use a mix of grapefruit and lemon or grapefruit and orange juice that would also be delicious.
- Store in the fridge for up to a week.
- Enjoy on its own or use as a mixer for cocktails or as the liquid in smoothies! Try it in the Bone Broth Tropical Protein Smoothie, Tropical Cranberry Smoothie, or in the Lemon Blueberry Smoothie.
