1
Juicing the Grapefruit
Start by juicing fresh grapefruit to yield 1 cup. Strain the juice to remove any pulp.
2
Mixing the Base
In a cocktail shaker, combine the fresh grapefruit juice, tequila, fresh lime juice, and agave syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds.
3
Adding Sparkle
Strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice. Top with sparkling water and gently stir to combine.

4
Infusing Spices
Add sliced fresh jalapeño and chopped cilantro to the cocktail mixture in the shaker before shaking. Adjust the amount of jalapeño based on your spice preference.

5
Finishing Touch
Garnish the cocktail with a wedge of grapefruit and a couple of cilantro sprigs on top for a fresh aroma and presentation.
