4 drops mint extract
green food coloring
1 cup seedless grapes
fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
Section grapefruit over bowl to catch juice. Drain sections, reserving 3/4 cup juice. Combine juice, mint extract, limeade, and a few drops of food coloring. Pour over grapefruit and grapes in a deep bowl. Cover and chill several hours, stirring once or twice. Serve in chilled stemmed glasses with fresh mint sprigs for garnish.
I tried this recipe because grapefruit is in season and got very positive reviews from the family. Mom was a grapefruit lover and also grew her own mint in our backyard. The mint spread like crazy and would have to be cut back on occasion. This would be good for breakfast or as an appetizer.
This sounds so yummy! I think I'll try it for breakfast! Thanks for making this blog Anita!! I hope one day I can cook half as well as Grandma Ruth!
