Makes 1 litre
Juice of 2 pink grapefruits
Juice of 1 lemon
1 small handful fresh mint leaves, crushed
3-4 tbsp honey
½ litre cold water, sparkling or still
Crushed ice or ice cubes
Slices of lemon and grapefruit
Combine the citrus juices in a pitcher and, if serving straight away, add the mint leaves.
Stir in the honey until dissolved. Add water, tasting as you go, to make sure it isn’t too diluted.
To take on a picnic, add ice cubes and slices of grapefruit and lemons to the pitcher before leaving. To serve straight away, pour over crushed ice and the slices of fruit.
