Ingredients

  • 4–5 large grapefruit
  • 2 oz (50 g) castor sugar

Method

Grapefruit prepared this way has a delicate green colour and a delicious fresh peppermint flavour. Ideal to serve before a rich meal.

Cut the grapefruit in two and, using a grapefruit knife, loosen the segments in each half. Squeeze the flesh and juice into a basin.

Add the castor sugar and crème de menthe. Stir so that the green colour blends evenly and the sugar dissolves. Chi
