Can I Swap The Honey?

Sure! If you aren’t a fan of honey or want to make the drink vegan, you can swap the honey for agave nectar or maple syrup. They will slightly adjust the flavor of the drink but will still be tasty and refreshing.

Is It Okay To Use Flavored Sparkling Water?

Yep, that’s more than fine. They make some really good grapefruit and lime sparkling waters and they would both be terrific in this drink. If you opt for a different flavor, you need to go with something that is going to compliment the grapefruit juice. Orange, lemon, or a combination of citrus flavors is going to be best.

Do I Need Fresh Grapefruit Juice Or Store-Bought?

You can go either way here. They are both great options.Using store-bought is all about convenience and being able to use it right away with no squeezing grapefruits. However, the flavor of fresh grapefruit juice is hard to beat. So, try both ways to see what you enjoy the most. Just watch the sugar content on the store-bought juice if you are cutting back on sugar. Many juices are loaded with extra sugar that you may not want.

Can I Salt The Rim Of The Glass?

Absolutely! Simply take a lime wedge or grapefruit wedge and rub it around the glass. Then dip the glass in salt, sugar or a combination of both. Then scoop the ice into the cup and pour the pitcher palomas on top. Enjoy!
