A light summer refresher. Somewhat subject to the sweetness of your grapefruit juice, tart/bitter notes can get away from you w/o sweet juice and careful measurement. Delicious!

I want to like this cocktail and even with the substitutions (I used packaged white grapefruit juice, and licor 43 for the vanilla) it was promising but something wasn't right. Every time I use Rose's Lime Juice I get this lingering industrial bitterness that's not the kind of bitter we intentionally add to our beverages. whilst checking the internet for a substitute, came across a recipe at jeffreymorgenthaler.com. His uses sugar, lime juice, lime zest and citric acid. Great comments also.
