Salty Dog Spritz
Salty Dog Spritz
This lower-alc cocktail earns its cocktail status thanks to some nuances that make it feel special. Add some sparkle to this classic cocktail by reducing the grapefruit and replacing with a bit of fizzy soda water. Next, add dimension by serving it in a glass that boasts a bold stripe of kosher salt.
