Grilled Grapefruit Paloma cocktail

-

2 large grapefruit­s, sliced in half

2 tablespoon­s sugar Ice

4 ounces tequila

2 tablespoon­s honey

2 cans lime- or grapefruit-flavored soda water

2 large sprigs rosemary

Instructio­ns: Set a grill up for direct heat. After the charcoal has ashed over, dip the cut surface of the grapefruit halves in sugar (making sure to coat the surface), and grill cut-side down until char marks have formed (about 3-4 minutes), then remove.

After the grapefruit halves have cooled slightly, juice them.

Add ice to 2 high-ball or old-fashioned glasses (they should hold at least 8 ounces). In each glass, pour 2 ounces of tequila, half the grapefruit juice, 1 tablespoon of honey and top with soda. Use a rosemary sprig to stir.
