Scrub the grapefruit with soap and hot water to remove any pesticides and wax. 2. Peel the grapefruit carefully with vegetable peeler to remove ONLY the outside skin. Work slowly to prevent peeling the white pith along with the skin. If you have pieces with the white pith, scape them with a knife to clean off as much as possible. 3. Soak the cleaned peels in the neutral spirit for at least 5 days. You can go as long as 1 month, depending on how much color and flavor you want. 4. Strain the peels out of the liquor, and allow them to drain while you make the syrup. 5. Combine 800ml of grapefruit juice and 500g sugar in a pan and heat until the sugar dissolves. Do not boil. Then cool to room temp. 6. Use a proofing calculator here - https://chasethecraft.com/mash-fermentation to figure out how much syrup you’ll need to add to the liquor to achieve a target abv of 30-35%. 7. Add the syrup to the liquor, stir and taste. You can add more sugar if you want it sweeter, and add straight juice if you want to thin it out a bit. You should add enough liquid recommended by the proofing calculator to hit your target, whether that liquid is juice, juice/sugar syrup, or sugar/water syrup. 8. Allow the GrapefruitCello to rest for 1 week or longer, then store in the freezer to chill prior to serving.
