Instructions

Embrace the refreshing essence of the ocean with the Salty Sea Breeze Spritz, a unique cocktail designed for those who cherish the savory side of sips. This drink masterfully combines the crispness of a sea breeze with a delicate balance of salt, sweetness, and acidity, ensuring a refreshing and invigorating experience. Ideally served in a highball glass to enhance its vibrant character, this cocktail is perfect for hot summer days or any moment you desire a refreshing salty escape. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Vodka - 0.5 oz Grapefruit Liqueur - 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 0.5 oz Simple Syrup - 2 oz Soda Water - A pinch of Sea Salt - Fresh Grapefruit Slice, for garnish - Fresh Lime Wheel, for garnish Instructions: 1. Begin by chilling a highball glass: fill it with ice and set it aside while you prepare the cocktail. 2. In a shaker, combine vodka, grapefruit liqueur, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and a generous pinch of sea salt. The sea salt doesn't just add to the flavor profile; it enhances the other ingredients, making each sip more vibrant. 3. Fill the shaker with ice, seal tightly, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds or until the shaker feels icy to the touch. This step is crucial for diluting the drink to perfection and ensuring a balanced mix of all flavors. 4. Discard the ice from the highball glass, ensuring it's perfectly chilled for serving. 5. Double strain the mixture into the prepared highball glass filled with fresh ice. Double straining ensures a smoother drink by removing any tiny ice shards or pulp. 6. Top the cocktail with soda water to add a refreshing fizz that lightens up the drink, making it more palatable and refreshing. 7. For the final touch, garnish with a thin slice of fresh grapefruit and a lime wheel. These garnishes not only add a colorful flair but also subtly contribute to the aromatics and flavor as you sip. 8. Optionally, you can rim the glass with a mix of sea salt and grapefruit zest before adding the ice at step 4 for an extra burst of salty citrus with every sip. Serving Suggestions: - Serve immediately with a straw, optionally a biodegradable or reusable one. - Accompany with light snacks that complement its bright and salty character, such as salted nuts, olives, or light seafood appetizers. The Salty Sea Breeze Spritz offers a harmonious blend of salty, tart, and sweet, encapsulating the invigorating spirit of the sea. It's a perfect alternative for margarita lovers looking for a novel salty cocktail experience.
