Refreshing and not too sweet,this gorgeous sunset-coloured non-alcoholic cocktail uses an abundance of grapefruit. If you’re feeling festive,add a slosh of vodka,as I have been known to do.
4 cups ice
500ml fresh grapefruit juice (2 large grapefuit)
150ml rosemary simple syrup (see recipe)
750ml sparkling water
grapefruit slices and rosemary to garnish (optional)
1¼ cups water
1¼ cups white sugar
10g (¼ cup) rosemary leaves
To make the rosemary simple syrup,bring the water,sugar and rosemary to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 1 minute then remove from heat and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes. Strain.
Add the ice to a large jug. Pour in the grapefruit juice,cooled syrup and sparkling water. Mix using a chopstick or the handle of a wooden spoon.
Pour into glasses,adding grapefruit slices and rosemary stalks to serve,if desired.
