Grapefruit Rum

The grapefruit essence lends itself to warm summer nights, and it pairs with seafood as well as avocado and carrots. It’s great for celebrating in Caribbean style or bringing the tropical sun into your winter-worn home.

25 oz. Rum

1 large pink grapefruit

1. Slice the grapefruit and remove the peel.

2. Place sliced grapefruit in bottom of infusion jar.

3. Add rum and seal the jar.

4. Let infuse for 1–2 weeks out of direct sunlight, tasting and gently shaking regularly.

5. Strain the rum into a clean bottle and cap.

TIP

You may also include the zest from the grapefruit peel. Just be sure to only use the outer layer of the peel and not the white portion.
