It’s September and we have this amazing refreshing cocktail for you. It’s the perfect cocktail for the hot September days in Curaçao. Beer and citrus is always a good idea and this time we are going to explore the taste of beer and grapefruit together. You can make this recipe with fresh grapefruit juice but of course you can buy grapefruit juice in the supermarket to save you some time. We prefer it freshly made.

To make a grapefruit sensation cocktail you will need:

1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
2 teaspoons grated lime rind
2 (12-oz.) bottles of chilled Corona beer
2 cups fresh chilled pink grapefruit
1/2 cup tequila patron
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Combine the sugar, water and the lime rind in a glass jar. Cover with lid and shake until sugar dissolves. Pour mixture into a pitcher and add the beer, grapefruit juice, tequila and lime juice. Stir all the ingredients gently. Serve over ice. You can also serve it with a half-salted rim.
