1. Avocado and Grapefruit Fennel Salad
This may sound like a weird combination, but the creamy avocado, crisp fennel and tart grapefruit blend together beautifully. Salty Parmegiano-Reggiano adds the perfect finishing touch.
2. Ruby Red Grapefruit Bars
The trusty old lemon bar can take a seat for this new twist
on a bake sale/potluck crowd-pleaser. Because of ruby red grapefruit’s natural
sweetness, the bar is a little sweeter too.
3. Grapefruit Yogurt Cake
This cake has grapefruit juice in both the batter and the
glaze, which makes for a bright dessert.
4. Grapefruit Posset
The reaction between cream and grapefruit makes a magically
thick and creamy dessert, with sugar for sweetness and smoothness.
Make it!
5. Grapefruit Marmalade
If Paddington Bear discovered this snappy alternative to orange marmalade, his mind would be blown.
6. Grapefruit Brûlée
If you’re not big on eating raw grapefruit, try this sweeter version with broiled sugar on top. Plunk some mascarpone on top, sprinkled with pistachios, and you will have the most luxurious breakfast or sweet snack.
7. Hollywood Brown Derby Cake
This cake from the famed Hollywood Brown Derby is pure old-time
glamour. Serve the chiffon layer cake, stuffed with grapefruit, after the Derby’s other iconic dish, the
Cobb salad.
8. Sparkling Indigo Martini Empress Gin Cocktail
Crisp and a gorgeous purple hue, the grapefruit juice
changes the gin from royal blue with its acidity. Lillet Blanc, lavender simple
syrup and prosecco complete the drink.
