This is a drink that can get you going when you need an extra kick. It’s good earlier in the day – for lunch or brunch – or in the late afternoon when you’ve got plans for the evening. The flavor is sour tempered by sweet almond – a really enjoyable combination.

  • 2 ounces grapefruit juice
  • 1/2 ounce Orgeat or amaretto
