Grapefruit Tea_
This is a wonderful tea (via M.S.) -- one of my favs for this time of year -- enjoy!!
.
Grapefruit is high in vitamin C, potassium, several carotenoids including beta-carotene. The white pith contains pectin and bioflavonoids which makes grapefruits an excellent antioxidant food. _

Time to break out the KitchenAid® Citrus Juicer Attachment. Love this simple solution for fresh fruit juice!!

2 cups ruby red grapefruit juice (squeezed from 2 grapefruits)

Directions

YUM! I am drinking apricot tea right now but I will have to try your recipe. So refreshing.
My first time to visit. Your photographs are so beautiful! Loved reading about your house and recording your children's height on the door. We do that too!

Oh, wow - I must try this! Never saw a recipe for this before. I am having tea right now and wish I could swap it out for yours!
Have a great day, Sabina!
