Grapefruit mamosa trip report: for gare's eyes only
So I was drinking with some friends last night, and I decided to chase my dream, the grapefruit mamosa. We went to the liqour store, and I got cheap champange, pure grapefruit juice. The idea is that bitterness of the grapefruit juice will be counter acted by the cheap champange, since cheap champ. is usually sweet. I also picked up some pineapple juice as an emergency incase the grapefruit mamosa didn't work. We got back, and we mixed them together, and they were good, a bit like an alcoholic squirt. but it was a little too biter. So I added a splash, just a hint of pineapple juice. And gare, let me tell you, that was the secret. It was a magnificent drink.
BUT.....
The grapefruit juice KILLED my stomach. Just destroyed it. It was so harsh, gave me the worst indigestion. It still hurts this after noon. So, the final verdict for me is that it's a delicious drink, but not worth the pain.
