Longitude’s Navy Grog

Where do we begin with this recipe. I suppose first we owe a huge thanks to @spindriftsuz for providing it for us. We messaged Suzanne not sure if the recipe was top secret, only to find out it was printed on the back of all of Longitude’s Navy Grog glasses!! We were thoroughly missing these drinks since Longitude’s closure and getting to truly drink this memory meant the world. Next we owe a thanks to Devin’s parents for the white grapefruits, a truly rare find in grocery stores but for some odd reason they have a whole tree of them in their front yard in Cupertino!! Guess it’s an old orchard town so it sort of makes sense. Let us know if you try this one!! It was so delicious and you’d never know the punch it packs.
