Are you looking for something refreshing to enjoy with the one you love on Valentines day?
Strawberry Grapefruit Mimosas are the way to go with their bright pink color and refreshing flavor. The perfect cocktail to enjoy for brunch or an after dinner cocktail.
Colt was teasing me the whole time while we were putting these together about my girly drink but after his first sip he said now I know what this summers goto cocktail will be. It's so light and refreshing yet not too sweet and he said my drink was girly.
I promise you this is the perfect cocktail to swoon the one you love or enjoy with your bestie curled up on the couch watching a movie.
We bought a half bottle of champagne because I'm a cheap date if you know what I mean.
In a blender add 5 whole strawberries stems removed and juice of 1 large pink grapefruit.
(Colt strained the grapefruit juice but this isn't necessary.)
Add one tablespoon Sugar or to taste.
Blend until smooth.
Use a strainer to remove pulp as you pour strawberry grapefruit juice into the cocktail shaker.
Add 2 ounces Tequila.
Add 1 cup of ice and shake until well combined and cold.
Strain out ice and fill 2 champagne glasses half way full of strawberry grapefruit juice.
Top off glasses with pink moscato.
Garnish the rim with a small strawberry. Cheers to good food, fun times and being with someone you love.

So many delicious looking recipes. I love how you categorize them - breakfast, lunch & dinner. Stopping by from SITS Blogging.
Easy and refreshing. Great idea for a drink. Thanks! Stopping by via SITS.
This is the most gorgeous color Serena. I love the combination of grapefruit and strawberries, so refreshing!!
Thanks so much Chris! It ended up being perfect for Valentines Day.
Thanks so much Rudi!
This looks wonderful! So pretty for Valentine's Day. #SITSBlogging
Looks so romantic.
Looks great, however I am unable to have grapefruit juice due to the type of medication I take for high blood pressure. I'll have to go with strawberries only for this one, or maybe I'll see what happens if I add a little pineapple juice instead...
Gulp, gulp, gone!! So yummy, love it!!
LOVE this cocktail Serena! It's color is beautiful and makes it perfect for Valentine's Day. But I could personally enjoy this every Sunday with brunch! Happy Valentine's Day! : )
You had me at mimosa! Love fresh citrus in any drink. Happy VD!
I love mimosas but this is a mimosa on steroids. SO beautiful to look at and I'll bet it's a winner to drink too.
Oooh, this twist on mimosas is genius! Even better than the original! If I wouldn't have to take a nap by mid-morning, I would have loved this with my Valentine's Day breakfast :) Hope yours was a good one!!!
This looks so yummy!!! I love grapefruit drinks - so pretty too :)
