Ingredients:
- 2 large grapefruits, juiced
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons honey (optional)
- 1 cup cold water
- Ice cubes

Instructions:
- Start by juicing the grapefruits. Pour the freshly squeezed juice into a pitcher. Enjoy the tangy aroma of the citrus as it fills the room.

- Stir well and pour the juice into glasses filled with ice cubes.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and extra raspberries for a delightful, colorful touch.

- For a natural sweetener, replace honey with agave syrup or stevia.
- Serve in a chilled glass for added refreshment, especially on a hot day.
- Consider adding a splash of club soda for an effervescent twist that kids and adults alike will love.
Storage and Substitutions:
- This juice is best enjoyed fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 2 days in an airtight container.
- Substitute honey with maple syrup or agave for a vegan-friendly option.
Pairings and Complements:
- Serve this refreshing drink with a light brunch of avocado toast and fresh fruit salad.
- It also pairs wonderfully with summer BBQ favorites like grilled vegetables and lean proteins.
