bitter sweet grapefruit tea
The weather is wet and cold, so I do some physical labor to keep warm. This is the second time I have made grapefruit tea. I am very satisfied to say, but I haven't taken many pictures. If I am unclear, I will refer to others 'pictures:P

Steps for bitter sweet grapefruit tea
1
Buy a grapefruit. There are also some particular things about choosing grapefruits. I don't really understand it, so I just choose the one with a larger proportion and with golden and shiny skin.2
Boil half a pot of boiling water to perch the grapefruit for a while, because it is said that the grapefruit sold in the supermarket has a layer of wax on the outside. Grab half a handful of salt and rub it on the grapefruit skin twice. This is equivalent to MM washing her face with a matte facial cleanser for deep cleaning.3
Use a knife to cut the grapefruit skin thinly, cut it into thin threads, rub it with salt water to remove the bitterness of the grapefruit skin. The grapefruit skin is really too bitter. If you don't believe it, put a piece in your mouth and try it. Then put it into the pot, add some water and boil it for a while, add rock sugar, and cook it for a while longer, bringing the taste of grapefruit peel into the water;4
Squeeze the grapefruit meat with a juicer, pour it into the pan where the grapefruit peel is still boiling, boil it for a few minutes, cool it, add honey, put it in a bottle, place it in the refrigerator, and you can use it to boil water at any time.5
PS. Personally, I think it's very uneconomical to sell that Wang's grapefruit tea in supermarkets. It's expensive and undrinkable. It tastes too sweet. I made three bottles of tea with one grapefruit. That is to say, a grapefruit costs 10 yuan. I made tea worth 120 yuan, hehe.
