This summer we have been very into making cocktails at home. And I think that this has been one of my favorites, a grapefruit thyme spritz!

It’s refreshing, light and complex. The gin adds botanicals, the grapefruit the tart tanginess and the vermouth an added layer of complexity.

Grapefruit Thyme Spritz:

1/2 oz of gin
3/4 oz of white vermouth
3/4 oz of fresh grapefruit juice
Splash of sparkling wine
Garnish with grapefruit and thyme

Instructions:
1. Mix gin grapefruit juice and vermouth in a wine glass.
2. Put the slice of grapefruit and thyme in the glass.
3. Fill the glass to the top with ice.
4. Add a splash of sparkling wine.

And enjoy!
