sparkling grapefruitade

Did you see what I saw yesterday?? Mr. Sun finally peeked his head out from behind all those rain clouds that have been hovering for far too long, and we had a glorious, blissful, 80-degree day.

J and I originally wanted to head to the Arnold Arboretum for Lilac Sunday. But then we woke up and realized that it was actually quite a hike, and we are both still fighting through the last bits of beastly work left in this semester. So instead we caught a matinee and spent the afternoon drinking iced coffee and typing, typing, typing.

But let's face it...it's high time we celebrate this warm weather...

...with something bubbly and sweet...

Ingredients:

juice of 1 grapefruit, pulp strained out

2 cups seltzer water

lemon NuStevia, to taste -OR- sugar + lemon juice, to taste
