Recipe Instructions:
1 pink grapefruit, peeled, suprême
6 ounces Greek yogurt
1/2 avocado
1 tablespoon honey or agave nectar
Juice of 1/4 lime
Pinch sea or kosher salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Fresh mint sprig
Directions
To suprême any citrus fruit, all you need is a sharp knife. A dull one will just make a mess of things and discourage you. First, remove both ends of the peel right down to the flesh. Then stand the fruit on one end. Make a series of overlapping vertical cuts, following the curve of the fruit, from top to bottom. Cut right down to the level of the fruit. You want to remove ALL the white pith (it's bitter). Next, cup the fruit in one hand and hold your knife in the other. You'll cut between the membrane and the fruit, towards the center, on both sides of each segment. Each one should slide right out. Last, transfer the fruit segments to a blender or food processor. Be sure to squeeze the membrane ball really well to extract all the luscious juice trapped in it.
Add the remaining ingredients. Purée until as smooth as possible. You'll see some tiny pink confetti. That's fine. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Pour into a pretty glass and garnish with a mint sprig. Take a sip. It's like an instant, if short, trip to a warm climate. One more day of winter down.
