Grapefruit Sparkling Water Recipes

Steps:

• Place 1 thinly sliced grapefruit in a pitcher. For still infused water, add 2 quarts of water. For sparkling water, add 1 quart of seltzer during prep and a second quart just before serving. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours to allow the grapefruit to infuse. Stir well and strain, discarding the grapefruit. For serving, add fresh grapefruit slices for garnish and plenty of ice. The infused water will keep refrigerated for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Combine the sugar with 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes, until the sugar dissolves. Pour into a 9 x 13 x 2-inch rectangular (non-metal) baking dish. Stir in the grapefruit juice, Champagne, and fleur de sel.
• Carefully place the dish on a level surface in the freezer. Freeze for one hour, rake the granita with a large dinner fork, and return it to the freezer. Continue to rake the granita every 30 minutes, until it's firm and granular. This might take as long as 3 hours. Serve frozen in pretty bowls or stemmed glasses.

Steps:

• In a punch bowl or large pitcher, combine gin and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves, 1 minute. Add grapefruit juice and bottle of sparkling wine; stir to combine. To serve, fill 6 glasses with ice and wine mixture, then garnish with thin lemon slices.

Steps:

• Add prepped fruit to a tall glass.
• Add ice to the glass.
• Pour sparkling water into glass.
• Allow to sit for the flavors to infuse as you drink and enjoy!
