Notes

Pink or ruby red grapefruit provides a beautiful color and slightly sweeter flavor.
Use mild honey so it doesn't overpower the fresh grapefruit.
Making a quick honey syrup helps the honey blend smoothly into the cold juice.
Taste the grapefruit before adding all of the honey syrup and adjust according to its natural tartness.
Keep the ingredients and champagne flutes chilled so ice isn't necessary.
Prepare the grapefruit-honey base ahead of time if desired, but add the sparkling beverage only when you're ready to serve.
