Grapefruit Cocktail

I absolutely love grapefruit themed cocktails and actually grapefruit anything. There is just something about the tartness and slight bitter taste that I love. Unfortunetly grapefruit juice interacts with certain medications so for the time being I have to obstain but that does not mean you have to. This cocktail is perfect for a casual dinner party or even something to enjoy by the pool because it is refreshing and versitile.
