Ginger Grapefruit Spritzer Recipes

Steps:

• Make the simple syrup: Bring the sugar and 1/3 cup water to a simmer in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Remove from the heat and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Combine the white wine, grapefruit juice, Campari and simple syrup in a pitcher and refrigerate until ready to serve. Pour into ice-filled glasses and top with the seltzer. Garnish with raspberries and grapefruit.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine ginger, sugar, honey, and 1/4 cup water over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
• Place grapefruit juice in a pitcher. Strain ginger syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into pitcher. To serve, divide juice mixture among 6 glasses filled with ice, and top off with a splash of club soda.

Steps:

• For the grenadine syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, stir together the pomegranate juice and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Let cool. (Makes about 3/4 cup; extra syrup can be stored in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.)
• For the spritzer: Add the tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice and 2 tablespoons grenadine syrup in a rocks glass and mix until combined. Fill with crushed ice. Add the ginger ale, drop in a lime slice and serve.
