Method

Cocktail

1

Build and chill

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Add 2 oz Deep Eddy Ruby Red Vodka and 0.5 oz fresh lime juice. If you prefer a slightly sweeter drink, add 0.25 oz simple syrup.

2

Shake

Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10 seconds — enough to chill and dilute slightly.

3

Strain over ice

Fill a highball or Collins glass with fresh ice (about 1 cup). Strain the shaken vodka-lime mixture into the glass.

4

Top with ginger beer

Gently pour 4 oz ginger beer over the strained cocktail. Stir once gently with a bar spoon to combine without losing effervescence.

5

Add bubbles

Top the drink with 2 oz dry sparkling wine to add bright bubbles and a hint of dryness that balances the ginger beer and ruby red vodka.

Garnish & Serve

6

Express the oils of a grapefruit twist over the top of the drink by holding the twist over the glass and pinching it so the oils spray onto the surface; then drop the twist into the glass. Alternatively, float a thin grapefruit slice on top.

7

Optional: slap a mint sprig between your palms to release aroma and place it alongside the twist. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer.
