Ingredients
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup water
- 2 ounces fresh ruby red grapefruit juice (1 grapefruit yields 6 to 8 ounces of juice)
- 1 ½ ounces vodka or gin
- ½ small lemon, juiced
- ¼ to ½ ounce honey simple syrup
- 2 -inch sprig of rosemary
- Tiny dash of sea salt (trust me)
- 2 to 3-inch sprig of rosemary
Steps
-
First, juice the grapefruits and make the honey simple syrup. Pour the honey and water into a small saucepan and warm over medium heat. Use a whisk to blend the honey into the water and remove from heat (there is no need to bring the mixture to a simmer, this process should only take a couple of minutes).
-
Fill a small cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the grapefruit juice, vodka, lemon juice and honey simple syrup. Top with a sprig of rosemary and a dash of salt. Put on the lid and shake until the mixture is thoroughly chilled, about 20 seconds. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with a small sprig of rosemary. Serve immediately.
