This cocktail is a refreshing and tangy twist on a classic margarita. The grapefruit juice adds a tart and slightly bitter flavor that pairs well with the tequila, while the lime juice and simple syrup balance out the drink. The salt rim adds a savory touch, while the club soda lightens the drink and gives it some fizz
