Ingredients
Ruby Red Grapefruit
Accompaniments: Grated fresh Ginger, Chopped Mint, or Kosher Salt
Instructions
- Cut the grapefruit in half across the “belly” so that the stem end and tip are left intact.
- Place both halves of grapefruit on a plate.
- Top with desired accompaniment. Ginger will add a sharp spicy flavor, while fresh mint will be a little more subtle, and salt will actually bring out the sweetness of the king of citrus.
Note: You can easily turn the above combinations into a delicious smoothie. To do that, peel the grapefruit, and add the sections with ice and a small amount of your desired accompaniment to start. Gradually add more to taste. You could also try a plant-based sweetener; my favorite is SweetyHi, which is a combination of Stevia, Lo Han Guo (Monk Fruit) and Inulin FOS (Chicory Root).
