Weekends in Vermont

• BLOG •

I went to visit my dear friend Betsy in Vermont over the weekend. Vermont is just so beautiful! It is...

rolling hills,

fresh swimming holes,

deep quarries

and tall trees. 

Betsy introduced me to a cocktail that I loved, so I thought I'd share it! 
I can't remember what she called it but I'm calling it a Grapefruit Splash.

Betsy's Grapefruit Splash
(this is for one drink. Ok, ...triple the measurements)

• 3 Tablespoons Good Tequila (like Patron or Herradura)

• 2 Tablespoons Elderflower liquor

• 1 Tablespoon Lime juice or 1/2 a lime squeezed.

• 3 Tablespoons Grapefruit juice (fresh squeezed really is the key to this drink)

• Top off with San Pellegrino Grapefruit Soda (approx 4 tablespoons)

Serve to a good friend with ice and a nice view.

My view? The kids climbing trees and thus I ended up needing the drink. Do you see how high they are? (there are 4 girls in the picture).
