What is Giffard Pamplemousse Liqueur?
Giffard Pamplemousse Liqueur captures the essence of pink grapefruit in a bottle, offering a vibrant and refreshing flavor profile that's perfect for cocktails or as a standalone aperitif. Interestingly, the Giffard family has been crafting liqueurs since 1885, when pharmacy owner Emile Giffard created his first liqueur, Menthe-Pastille, as a digestive aid for patients suffering from summer heat - a tradition of quality and innovation that continues with their Pamplemousse Liqueur today.
Why do we love Giffard Pamplemousse Liqueur?
Giffard Pamplemousse Liqueur stands out for its vibrant, true-to-fruit grapefruit flavor, achieved through a meticulous infusion of pink grapefruit peels and essential oils. Unlike many citrus liqueurs that rely on artificial flavoring, Giffard's commitment to using only natural ingredients results in a beautifully balanced, less-sweet liqueur that perfectly captures the essence of fresh grapefruit – making it an essential ingredient for elevating classic cocktails like the Paloma or creating innovative, citrus-forward libations.
How do you drink Giffard Pamplemousse Liqueur?
Giffard Pamplemousse Liqueur shines in refreshing citrus-forward cocktails, particularly those with a gin or vodka base, but it's equally delightful served simply over ice or mixed with sparkling wine for a quick, effervescent sipper. This vibrant grapefruit liqueur is perfect for warm weather enjoyment, pairing beautifully with light, seafood-centric dishes or fresh summer salads that complement its bright, zesty character.

Nose: Fresh and vibrant grapefruit zest dominates, backed by subtle floral notes reminiscent of orange blossom. A hint of candied sweetness balances the citrus sharpness.
Palate: Bold pink grapefruit flavor bursts forward, tart and juicy. The initial citrus punch softens into a mellower sweetness, reminiscent of ruby red grapefruit segments. Light herbal undertones add complexity, similar to fresh basil or lemon thyme.
Finish: Medium-long with lingering grapefruit pith bitterness. The sweetness fades, leaving a refreshing, slightly dry sensation. A whisper of vanilla rounds out the aftertaste, softening the citrus edge.
Giffard Pamplemousse Liqueur is crafted using a careful infusion of fresh grapefruit peels in neutral alcohol, which extracts the fruit's vibrant essential oils and flavors. After the infusion, the mixture is blended with grapefruit juice and a touch of sugar to create a perfectly balanced liqueur that captures the bright, zesty essence of grapefruit without overwhelming sweetness.
