Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by chilling your glass. Fill a glass with ice water and set it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake well for about 15 seconds until the mixture is chilled.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Combine with Mixers

    Empty the ice water from your chilled glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass. Top with club soda and gently stir to combine.

  2. 4

    Add Grenadine

    Slowly pour the grenadine down the side of the glass. It will sink to the bottom, creating a beautiful gradient effect.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Final Touches

    Garnish your cocktail with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass and add fresh mint leaves for a refreshing aroma.
