Equipment

Cocktail shaker
Jigger or measuring cup
Citrus juicer

Ingredients

2 oz fresh lime juice
1 oz fresh orange juice
¾ oz agave syrup
1 oz grapefruit juice
2 oz sparkling water , club soda, or Topo Chico
Ice

Optional

Lime wedge and coarse salt for the rim
1 thin slice seeded jalapeño optional flavor boost

Instructions

If using a salted rim, rub a lime wedge around the edge of a glass and dip it into coarse salt.
Fill a shaker with ice. Add the lime juice, orange juice, agave syrup, and grapefruit juice.
Shake well for about 15 seconds.
Strain into a glass filled with fresh ice.
Top with sparkling water and give it a gentle stir.
If using, briefly swirl the seeded jalapeño slice in the drink, then remove.
Garnish with a lime wedge and serve.

Notes

You’ll typically get about 1 ounce of juice per lime, so plan on 2–3 limes per drink, depending on size and juiciness.
The jalapeño adds a subtle edge and a hint of spice, depending on the pepper used. For the mildest effect, use a thin slice from the tip and limit contact to just a few seconds.
If you avoid grapefruit for medical reasons, you can omit it or substitute a few drops of non-alcoholic bitters instead.
