Ingredients
  • Caramelized Grapefruit:
  • 1 ruby red grapefruit, sliced into half moons
  • Granulated sugar, to coat surface of grapefruit
  • Greyhound Spritzer:
  • 6 ounces fresh ruby red grapefruit juice
  • 6 ounces sparkling soda water
  • 3 ounces vodka, high-end
  • Ice
  • Fresh sage or lavender leaves, to garnish
  • Caramelized grapefruit wedges, to garnish
  • Chef’s Note: Have fun creating flavored ice cubes to add to the drink. Adding fresh berries in the ice cubes is a beautiful touch that will leave a lasting impression.
Instructions
  1. For the Grapefruit: Sprinkle the sugar on top of the grapefruit slices. Arrange the slices onto a small sheet pan. To caramelize, place under broiler set on high heat. Rotate after three minutes. Once bubbling and edges start to turn dark, remove from heat. Allow to completely cool down.
  2. For Greyhound: Place ice into 2 stemless wine or highball glasses. Split wet ingredients between both glasses and to finish, garnish with caramelized grapefruit wedges and fresh sage. Cin Cin!
