Author Notes
This is a non-alcoholic nod to the Paloma. It's tart and refreshing soda with a pale pink hue. Seedlip Garden 108 adds sophistication to the grapefruit and lime. —hardlikearmour

Cut the lime rinds into large chunks. Combine with sugar in a glass jar or non-reactive bowl. Cover tightly. Stir periodically (every 30 to 60 minutes) until the sugar has dissolved (several hours).
