Method

Cocktail

Chill glass

Place a coupe or martini glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes, or fill with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill.

Combine ingredients

Add 1.5 oz Ketel One Grapefruit & Rose vodka, 0.75 oz elderflower liqueur, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.

Add ice and shake

Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds, until the shaker is cold to the touch and the cocktail is well chilled and slightly diluted.

Strain

Discard ice from the chilled glass (if used). Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards and any pulp.

Garnish & Serve

Express the oils of a grapefruit twist over the surface of the drink by holding the twist skin-side down and giving it a quick squeeze, then run the twist around the rim and drop it into the cocktail (or float a wheel on the surface). If desired, place a single edible rose petal on the surface for an elegant look.

Serve immediately while cold.
