Fresh grapefruit juice with honey

Recipes Drinks
Grapefruit juice is the most characterful among citrus fruits: a dance of bitter (naringin), sour, and sweet flavours. This is not a simple fruit juice, but a wake-up drink that shakes up the taste buds. Honey softens the bitter aftertaste, so even those who find the fruit too wild on its own will grow to love it.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Citrus juicer
  • Fine sieve
  • Stirring spoon

Instructions

1 ✓

Roll the grapefruits on the counter with your palm, applying slight pressure, then cut them in half.

Tip: Rolling helps break the small fibres (cell walls) in the fruit flesh, so you can extract juice more easily and in greater quantity.
2 ✓

Juice the fruits thoroughly.

Tip: Use fresh fruit because essential oils from the peel also scent the juice during squeezing.
3 ✓

If you want a silkier drink, strain the juice through a fine sieve, pressing out the pulp with a spoon.

Tip: Removing pulp gives a more elegant texture, but leaving it in makes the drink more nutritious.
4 ✓

Stir the honey and a hint of salt into the fresh juice.

Tip: Salt suppresses bitter taste perception on the tongue, so the grapefruit's sweetness stands out more (flavour masking).
5 ✓

Pour into glasses over ice cubes and consume immediately.

Tip: Vitamin C is sensitive to light and air and degrades quickly (oxidation), so do not store for long.

Recipe FAQ

Why is the juice bitter?
Naringin in grapefruit causes bitterness, which is found mainly in the white membranes. If you juice carefully, less gets into the juice.
