Tips to make

  • You can easily double or triple the ingredients to make more servings.
  • This recipe uses a ratio of 1:1, but you can make it 1:2 or 1:3 by using more grapefruit juice for a lighter summer drink. Use more or less gin or tonic, as desired.
  • This cocktail tastes best fresh so we don’t recommend making it ahead of time. It’s easy to make and takes little time.
  • You can serve this drink over ice or without ice. We recommend serving it over ice. But, you can also chill by shaking with ice in a cocktail shaker before pouring into glass.
  • To sweeten this drink, you can add a small amount of simple syrup before mixing.
  • The rosemary garnish is optional.
