Pink Grapefruit Syrup Recipe

Ingredients

• 3 large pink grapefruits — washed and zested (reserve peels without the bitter white pith)
• 2 cups granulated sugar — for balanced sweetness and proper syrup consistency
• 1 cup water — to dissolve the sugar and infuse grapefruit flavor
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed grapefruit juice — intensifies the natural tartness and aroma
• Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract — adds subtle richness and rounds the flavor
