A Refreshing Grapefruit Margarita Recipe

This recipe is easy as 1, 2, 3. Also – it’s SO yummy! We tried our hand at making mixed drinks with BACARDI® Mixers and are never going back. We like to enjoy a good happy hour at the office, and when summer rolls around, they usually happen more frequently – and include more fun drinks. A hot day in the office = My reason to party. Hence, this refreshing Grapefruit Margarita we whipped up in no time. In a short trip to our local grocery store, we stocked up on fresh citrus (limes and grapefruits for this particular recipe) and the Margarita BACARDI® Mixer – as well as the Strawberry Daiquiri and Piña Colada flavors, because we foresee making a lot of these yummy concoctions in the future :). Don’t forget the rum!

We’re pretty proud of ourselves for serving up this refreshing summer sipper but we can’t lie – it was SO simple. The fresh juices used in the BACARDI® Mixers give the drink all the natural and delicious flavor it needs. We just infused it with a little grapefruit! Mainly because we like things with a touch of pink to them ;). Here’s how we made it:

Ingredients (makes 6 servings):

1 can Margarita BACARDI® Mixer

6 shots BACARDI® Rum

2 Grapefruits

Sugar

Directions:

1. Juice 1 1/2 grapefruits and slice 1/2 a grapefruit for garnish

2. Mix the BACARDI® Mixer, rum, and grapefruit juice in a blender with ice until smooth

3. Rub the rim of your glasses with grapefruit and dip them in sugar (cue the mouth watering)

4. Pour and garnish with a sliver of grapefruit on each glass

Enjoy!
