With an eye on the lack of fresh white grapefruit in our current season, I came up with this substitute. And I must say it was quite refreshing.
Navy Grog Fizz
1 oz Cruzan Light Rum
1 oz Pusser’s Navy Rum
1 oz Lemon Hart Demerara 80
¾ oz Fresh Lime Juice
½ oz Homemade Allspice Dram
2 dashes Fee Bros. Grapefruit Bitters
2 oz Hansen’s Grapefruit Soda
Mix everything except soda in a blender with crushed ice at high speed for five seconds. Pour into glass and stir in soda. Garnish with a spent lime wedge and mint sprig.

Sounded so tempting, I had to make a couple of these on Friday and followed the recipe as posted but had to use regular bitters ( I'm sure the grapefruit bitters really make this cocktail). Tangy and dry- just what I like- although I did back off the pimento dram to 1/4 oz for my second attempt.
