Ok, I wish I were a bit more creative in naming this drink, but my mind is drawing blank right now so there it is, it's grapefruit juice with honey and green tea :D Actually it all came from me obsessing over this glass teapot featured in Martha Stewart's Mind + Soul magazine, and the recipe that came with the teapot, this spiced grapefruit juice thing that is meant to be warm and cozy. So I bought two grapefruits thinking I'd try out the recipe, except it's not winter anymore :P To improvise, there comes this refreshing grapefruit juice mix with a touch of Ingredients: (for 1 liter / quart)
2 grapefruits
3 teaspoon of sencha
1.5 cups of water just below boiling (to brew the sencha)
Honey, several tablespoon, to taste
Top the container off with ice, stir and serve!
I usually squeeze the grapefruit juice first, then brew the concentrated green tea (3 tp sencha + 1.5 c water) in a separate container. It looks great when they are first poured in (as shown in the pic) but really it's not going to stay like that once mixed :P sorry!
