I had a grapefruit juice & basil cocktail at Mitchell's Fish Market at the Waterfront in Pittsburgh, PA, and loved it. I didn't have all the ingredients so I made up my own version. I still tweak it though-if using the bottled Ruby Red Lite Grapefruit juice, it doesn't need the simple syrup.. I'd like to use fresh grapefruit juice but this is what I had on hand.
Ingredients:
4 ounces grapefruit juice, ruby red lite
1 1/2 ounces vodka
1/2 ounce limoncello
2 basil leaves, chopped
1 tablespoon simple syrup
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, and shake.
2. Strain into a martini glass, top with a fresh basil leaf.
