Soon after I learned about this cocktail, I brought the ingredients to a family dinner at my parents'. The next time we got together, my dad had the fixings set out and ready to go. —Ian Cliffe, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Test Kitchen tips

This summer-perfect cocktail is refreshing without being too sweet.

Not sure where to find grapefruit soda? Two of the easiest to find are Fresca (the original flavor is grapefruit) and Jarritos (often found in the ethnic foods aisle). Other brands to try: Izze, Sanpellegrino, Ting and Whole Foods' pink grapefruit.
