I was meaning to ask you about grapefruit juice actually. The ocean spray stuff as you mentioned is really bitter. It's almost impossible to find fresh white grapefruit by me, so I have been squeezing the red variety. I know it's not the same, but tastes far better than bottled juice to me, while still adding the grapefruit profile.

If I don't have the Indian River brand nearby, what would be your recommendation?

Thanks guys! I've been saving this stuff up for a while, and now seemed the right time.

Happy buddha: If you're squeezing red grapefruit from Florida, you might be getting a similar juice to Indian River's Ruby Red (and The Mai-Kai). Where is the fruit from? From what I understand, a California grapefruit just won't be as sweet. I would stick with that if it tastes good.

In regards to the white juice, I'm open to suggestions. I may need to hunt down some Florida white grapefruit when they're in season. They're very hard to find in general markets. The red is usually what people buy.

I've heard good things about Texas grapefruit, I just haven't done much research. You Texas folk may want to check that out.
