Grapefruit Margarita
Grapefruit Margarita... perfect for fall and so good! I used @CasaAzulSoda Grapefruit Tequila Soda. They are made with real tequila and the flavor and crispness is on point! I have been enjoying them by themselves but was hosting some friends and wanted to jazz them up, and they elevated the classic marg quite a bit.
