Lean Libation: Ina Garten's Sea Breeze

This is a classic cocktail that anyone can throw together. It's nothin' fancy, but sometimes less is more. It can be easily be made lighter by using fresh squeezed juices and low-sugar versions of cranberry cocktail. In less than 5 minutes, you will have a massive pitcher of Sea Breeze cocktail for you and your friends to kick back and enjoy. Here is my take on Ina Garten's recipe for the Sea Breeze cocktail.

SEA BREEZE
Serves 10

INGREDIENTS:
  • 16 ounces vodka
  • 30 ounces NO SUGAR ADDED cranberry pomegranate juice
  • 12 ounces freshly squeezed grapefruit juice (about 2 grapefruits)
  • ice cubes
  • lime wedges, frozen
DIRECTIONS:

Put vodka and cranberry pomegranate juice in a pitcher. Squeeze in grapefruit juice and stir.  To serve, fill a glass half way with ice and pour juice over ice. Place a frozen lime wedge in each glass and enjoy.

CHEERS!
