Steps:
- Using a sharp paring knife, slice off stem and blossom ends of each grapefruit. Cut away the peel, and cut along the membranes to release segments. Place in a medium bowl, and set aside. Squeeze juice from membranes into a small saucepan.
- Add sugar to juice in pan; bring to a boil over high. Add rosemary, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until liquid is syrupy, about 2 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove rosemary and discard.
- Pour syrup over grapefruit in bowl; cover, and refrigerate until chilled, 45 minutes to 1 hour. To serve, spoon compote over pound cake slices, and garnish with rosemary sprigs, if desired.
