Strain into a tumbler filled with fresh ice cubes.
Float the Marionette Dry Cassis Liqueur over the top for a subtle sweetness.

Notes
I recommend using freshly squeezed grapefruit juice as it has more flavor than bottled varieties.
If you don’t have access to Marionette Dry Cassis Liqueur you can use other dry red liqueurs such as Cointreau.
If you don’t like the flavor of the Lilly pilly leaves, you can substitute them with any other type of herb or spice that you prefer.
