Grapefruit Blood Orange Shrub
 
 
Ingredients
  • 2 large grapefruits
  • 4 blood oranges
  • A handful of thyme sprigs
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • 1 ½ cups white wine vinegar
Instructions
  1. With a vegetable peeler, remove 4 to 5 strips of zest each from one grapefruit and one blood orange. Add citrus zest, thyme sprigs, sugar and water to a medium saucepan. Over medium high heat, bring to a boil, then remove pot from heat to cool to room temperature.
  2. While the thyme syrup cools, juice the grapefruits and oranges. (You should get about 1 cup each of grapefruit and orange juice).
  3. Pour thyme syrup and citrus juice through a strainer into a large bowl. Add the white wine vinegar and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  4. To make a Shrub Spitzer, fill a glass with ice, then pour in 1 to 2 ounces of the Grapefruit Blood Orange Shrub. Top with club soda. If desired, spike with 1 ½ ounces vodka or gin.
