Health and fertility benefits of Rhubarb Spritzer

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Grapefruits are rich in folic acid. One grapefruit will give you 8% of your daily needs of folic acid.

Ingredients

10 ounces rhubarb (about 3 medium stalks), cut into 1/2-inch slices
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 cups seltzer or 1 bottle (750 ml) dry sparkling Cava wine, chilled
Lemon and pink grapefruit slices, halved (optional)

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, stir rhubarb, sugar and lemon juice over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb breaks down completely, about 6 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard solids. Cover and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
Divide syrup among 8 glasses. Top with seltzer or Cava. Garnish with lemon and grapefruit slices, if desired. Serve immediately
