1 dash sugar (equal volume to the grapefruit juice)

1 pinch Salt rim garnish (optional)

Combine your tequila, lime juice, and grapefruit syrup in a shaker, and give everything a quick shake before straining over fresh ice and topping with club soda. (If you're using a pre-made soda, feel free to just mix your drink taste.)
