Method
Cocktail
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz grapefruit vodka, 0.5 oz triple sec, 1.5 oz cranberry juice, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup (if using).
Add ice and shake
Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds. Shake until the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted on the outside.
Strain
Discard ice or water from your chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards.
Garnish & Serve
Express the oils of a grapefruit twist over the drink by holding the twist over the glass and giving it a quick fold so the peel faces down, then rub the rim with the peel and drop the twist into the drink. Optionally float a lime wheel on the surface or use a grapefruit wheel on the rim.
Serve immediately. Estimated one cocktail per serving.
