Ruby Thyme Spritzers

• 1/4 cup (1 jigger) ruby red grapefruit juice (without pulp)
• 1/4 cup (1 jigger) prosecco
• fresh thyme leaves for garnish
• thin wedge of grapefruit for garnish
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 cup water
• 10 sprigs of fresh thyme

1. Make simple syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, honey and water. Heat over medium high heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is dissolved.rnTie the thyme sprigs together with a piece of kitchen string. Submerge the thyme in the still hot simple syrup and steep for 30 minutes.rnRemove the thyme and discard. Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve to remove any thyme leaves or other particles. Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator.
2. For each cocktailrnInto a champagne flute combine simple syrup, grapefruit juice and chilled prosecco. Garnish with a wedge of grapefruit and fresh thyme. Serve.rnNotesrnI used 1 tablespoon of the simple syrup, but if you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add two tablespoons.
