Grapefruit & Rosé Spritzer
Early Summer 2019
Join in on the spritzer revival with this rosé spin. If you prefer a drier (less sweet) cocktail, skip the Simple Syrup entirely.
Makes 1 cocktail
4 oz rosé sparkling wine, chilled
2 oz seltzer or sparkling water, chilled
1 small pink grapefruit
½ oz Simple Syrup, optional
1 Pour rosé and seltzer into a Champagne flute. Pull a long strip of peel from grapefruit. Squeeze and measure out 1½ oz grapefruit juice. Slowly add to Champagne flute. Taste and add Simple Syrup, if you like. Pinch peel over glass, spritzing the top of the cocktail. Rub around the exterior rim of the glass. Twist and add to glass.
