Categories     Fruit

Number Of Ingredients 3

2-4 ruby-red grapefruit
2 cups sugar
2 cups water

Steps:

  • 1. Wash the citrus under cold water and dry. Finely grate the peel, avoiding the white pith, until you have a heaping 2 Tbsp. grated peel. 2. In a bowl, vigorously stir the zest into the sugar. Use the back of a spoon to crush the zest into the sugar, until the sugar appears slushy and damp. Cover well and let sit overnight or several hours. 3. Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan and stir in the citrus sugar. Simmer the syrup for 3 minutes to dissolve the sugar. 4. Take off the heat and let cool. Strain out the zest and store the syrup in the refrigerator.
