Fresh Tart Grapefruit and tequila go together like peanut butter and chocolate, in my honest opinion, and the Greyhound is a simple prep that’s perfect for a summer afternoon. I discovered these at a neighborhood joint, Ziba’s, a few years ago. I had to start making them at home during the pandemic before restaurants began reopening.
