Recipe adapted or created by H. Joseph Ehrmann

Ingredients

  • 3 oz Fresh Victor Cucumber & Lime
  • 1.5oz gin
  • 1-2oz tonic water

Grapefruit & Rosemary Gin & Tonic


Recipe adapted or created by H. Joseph Ehrmann

Ingredients

  • 1 oz Fresh Victor Grapefruit & Sea Salt
  • 1.5 oz gin
  • 4 oz tonic water
  • 2 rosemary sprigs
  • 1-2 grapefruit wheels / half wheels (whatever fits your glass)

Build

Easier (less rosemary flavor): Build all ingredients over ice in a large goblet glass (red wine) and garnish.

Shaker

Optional (more rosemary flavor):

  1. In a cocktail shaker, lightly muddle one rosemary sprig, cover with Fresh Victor, gin and ice, shake lightly and strain over ice in a large goblet glass (red wine), top with tonic water and garnish with the grapefruit wheel and other rosemary sprig.

Substitute a non-alcoholic gin replacement (e.g. Ritual, Monday, CleanCo, etc.)
