I am going to keep this short and sweet just like as this Grapefruit Margaritas with Pomegranate Syrup recipe. I was not even going to share this recipe but then I was telling my friend Allison about it and well, she told me I had to! We cheated on our Ten in 10 last night.
It had been a long week and I decided since we are adults we could make the decision to enjoy a cocktail. While making dinner, Lenny was making his famous chili and we decided a margarita would be perfect.
We had some fresh grapefruits left over from a trip to Palm Springs, along with a little extra pomegranate simple syrup that we had purchased for cocktails a while back, both were perfect for this recipe. The pomegranate adds a pleasant tartness to this otherwise sweet cocktail recipe. A great recipe to enjoy all those seasonal grapefruits with.

I could use a drink but for some reason it seems like it wouldn't be the same if I made it myself at the moment. Definitely my kind of flavors...
