Too bad no stores in Texas. I squeezed and freezed an insane amount of white grapefruit juice this past December. The other day thawed a few cubes and made some Navy Grogs. Something was “off.” The drinks didn’t have their typically perfect balance and the juice on its own had definitely lost its brightness and tasted flat and dull. I don’t recall in previous years such a degree of degradation but perhaps I always used it up by this time of year. It's unclear where the juice comes from. But it's so fresh, it's gotta be Florida. I continue to check every "fresh market" since new ones continue to pop up across Florida. I'd keep an eye out in your area too. The newest for us Lucky's Market. We have one nearby that squeezes fresh OJ every day, but no grapefruit.
