90 minutes

Winter grapefruit lemonade with mandarin cubes is an elegant drink that combines the brightness of citrus fruits and the sophistication of French cuisine. Its fresh taste with a slight bitterness of grapefruit and the sweetness of mandarin cubes creates a harmonious balance reminiscent of winter sun on a cold day. The history of this drink is rooted in the French tradition of creating refined lemonades, where every detail—from the right combination of ingredients to the cooling method—turns ordinary lemonade into a true work of art. Frozen pieces of mandarin melting in ice slowly release their aroma, giving the drink a special depth of flavor. This lemonade will be the perfect accompaniment to light snacks or desserts, refreshing and filling the moment with coziness.
