Add Florals: Add a splash of rosewater or finish your cocktail off with edible flowers like cherry blossoms.
VODKA GRAPEFRUIT PLUS
Club soda or seltzer will also work, plus they contain fewer calories than tonic water.
Do I Have To Use Tonic Water? No way! Add sweetness by switching up the tonic water for soda, like Sprite or 7Up. Similar to vodka, gin has a clean taste, making it perfect for infusing fruity flavors. Switch The Liquor: No vodka, no problem! Gin will work just as well in this recipe. Shake it up and strain into a chilled martini glass, and finish with a squeeze of lime. Make It A Martini: Add 1 oz of grapefruit vodka, ice, 1 oz of triple sec, and a tablespoon of white sugar to a cocktail shaker. Here’s what I would recommend if you’re going to shake things up: There may not be many ingredients, but the variations list is long. I love to serve this fresh cocktail with a lime wedge, but a thin slice of grapefruit or edible flowers would be lovely as well. Pour 2 oz of grapefruit vodka in each, squeeze some lime juice over top, and finish with a splash of tonic water. Add 1/2 cup of ice cubes to 2 highball or stemless wine glasses. This super easy recipe takes only 5 minutes to whip together. TIP: If you don’t have access to grapefruit vodka, substitute with plain vodka and 2 oz of ruby red grapefruit juice. This is all you need to create your new favorite cocktail: None of these three ingredients are hard to source, especially with summer around the corner. I loved putting this recipe together because it was so easy and accessible. The bubbles from the tonic water make them feel like a healthy, adult soda.
