Let me serve you another drink with grapefruit juice: the Greyhound. Not as a long drink, but as a cocktail. The mildly bitter Italian amaro, Aperol, glves the drink its spring feel and does not drown the tender bitterness and taste of fresh grapefruit juice. The botanicals in gin are allowed to peep through and linger on your taste buds.
4 cl gin
1 cl Aperol
4 cl freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
1 dash of Angostura
The Greyhound is mostly known as a pleasingly refreshing long drink that is quite easy to make: 4 cl vodka and 10 cl grapefruit juice in a highball glass filled with ice. But, for God's sake, try the cocktail first.
