I don’t know why Vodka went off my radar likely once I turned an adult!  Seems everyone I talk to say they first starting drinking vodka orange “Back in the day!”  This vodka drink is soooo not that starter drink.  Ciroc is such a smooth vodka it is amazing!

Lets talk about ingredients for the most amazing Grapefruit Vodka Cocktail!!

First off the Vodka.  I have tried several kinds of vodka and while I do believe this drink would be amazing regardless of the brand I am really loving how smooth this Ciroc vodka is.  I highly recommend giving it a try and seeing if you notice a difference as well!

Cran-Pineapple Ocean Spray juice.  What an amazing combination!!  Yes I have tried the Diet Cran-Pineapple it is just not the same!  I recommend the regular!  Just do it…you won’t regret it!

Fresca!  While lots of people use ginger ale in drinks and I do believe that it would also taste amazing (I have never tried it yet though!) I prefer Fresca!  Fresca is a grapefruit citrus soft drink so not only does it add the wonderful taste of grapefruit but it is also sugar free!  Does that make up for the non-diet Cran-Pineapple?… no… but it makes me feel a bit better! lol

Pair these wonderful ingredients with fresh squeezed Ruby Red Grapefruit and its a match made in heaven!

I love fruit beverages but am not a fan of super sweet ones! Using fresh squeezed grapefruit and a bit of cranberry pineapple flavour is such a great combination!  This Grapefruit vodka cocktail will for sure be on the go for this summer it is wonderfully refreshing!

Give it a try and tag me!  #justadashofsugar @justadashofsugar on instagram so I can see it!  I’m excited to get in on all the fun this summer!
