Pink Grapefruit Punch
Country Woman
"Everyone who tastes this slightly sweet punch wants seconds, and then they ask for the recipe," relates Terry Taylor-Heskett of Goliad, Texas. "It's great with breakfast or brunch, but also good just by itself as a thirst-quencher. When covered, it'll keep in the fridge for several days."
