We’re mixing up a Sparkling Grapefruit Cocktail that’s a light and refreshing cocktail for sipping by the pool this summer! In fact, it’s so summery we’re calling it a Bikini Cocktail!

Who has summer on their mind?! I can just picture sitting by the pool with a Sparkling Grapefruit Bikini Cocktail in my hand!

This drink recipe is so fun, refreshing and easy to make! It’s the most perfect cocktail for a warm spring or summer afternoon.

How To Make This Sparkling Grapefruit Cocktail – Step By Step

  • Add the grapefruit juice, jam, and vodka in a cocktail shaker and shake with ice for 20 seconds.
  • Pour into a glass filled with ice.
  • Add in the club soda and the grapefruit soda and stir.
  • Garnish with a grapefruit wedge and a straw!

A Bikini Cocktail – The Perfect Summer Cocktail!

It just reminds us of a refreshing summer libation, so we put “bikini” in the name! It has raspberry jam, (I’m such a fan of cocktails that use jam!) and fresh grapefruit juice in it.

And to make it sparkle, we added sparkling grapefruit soda and club soda.

Grab your cocktail shaker and start mixing!

Sparkling Grapefruit Cocktail – A Low-Calorie Cocktail

This grapefruit cocktail is not only refreshing and delicious but it’s also one of the lower-calorie cocktails. It has around 150 calories and is great for anyone who may be watching their calorie intake but still want a delicious cocktail to sip.

Health Benefits of Grapefruit In This Sparkling Grapefruit Cocktail.

Several studies have shown that people who eat half a fresh grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice before each meal lose more weight than people who do not. 

Of course, fruits and vegetables should always be part of your strategy to lose or maintain weight, but one thing is for certain, grapefruit delivers a lot of nutrition and water for very few calories. 

Sparkling Grapefruit Cocktail – An Easy Summer Cocktail Recipe

If mixing with your guests is higher on the party agenda than mixing drinks, then this easy grapefruit cocktail is for you!

Only 5 ingredients and, other than the grapefruit for garnish, there’s no chopping or muddling. Just a quick shake and it’s ready to serve! Simple, refreshing and delicious!

Top Tips For A Sparkling Grapefruit Cocktail

  • Use fresh grapefruit juice, if possible.
  • Shake the mix until the shaker is cold – at least 20 seconds.
  • Add the soda into the glass after pouring the mix in.
  • Garnish with a slice of grapefruit
