This Pink Grapefruit Martini is my own cocktail tribute to SEX and the CITY. I loved that series and wanted something to represent the best qualities of Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte (Sassy, Sweet, Smart and Saucy) and was inspired by a delicious ruby red grapefruit drink called The Ruby* which popped up in Episode 12 of Season 4 in "Just Say Yes".
The Ruby uses simply Citron Vodka and fresh ruby red grapefruit juice whereas I used grapefruit vodka and a little lime juice with the grapefruit juice for this recipe. This makes the Pink Grapefruit Martini kind of a grapefruit version of the classic SATC cocktail, the Cosmopolitan.
I have fallen in love with this sassy and refreshing martini and I think that the girls would love this cocktail as well. It has a sophistication and flair that anyone would love. I think Mr. Big might even like this one.
