A refreshing pink grapefruit margarita recipe with fresh lime and grapefruit juice. A fun twist that's perfect for a crowd or taco night.

Ingredients

• 3 ounces freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, (about 1/2 large grapefruit)
• 1 ounce fresh lime juice, (about 1 large lime)
• 1 1/2 ounces silver tequila
• 1/2 ounce orange liqueur (such as triple sec or Grand Marnier)
• Splash club soda
• 1 part kosher salt
• 1 part granulated sugar
• Lime wedges (for garnish)
• Small grapefruit wedges (for garnish)
• Ice

Instructions

1. Begin by preparing the glasses: Place the sugar and salt on a small plate. Run a lime wedge around the edge of the glasses to moisten them, then tap the edges of the glass in the sugar/salt mixture so that it sticks.
2. Fill with the desired amount of ice and set aside.
3. In a cocktail shaker or jar with a tightly fitting lid, add the lime juice, grapefruit juice, tequila, and triple sec. Top off the shaker with ice, then close the lid and shake vigorously.
4. Strain margarita into the prepared glasses.
5. Top with a splash of club soda. Garnish with lime and grapefruit wedges. Enjoy immediately.
