Add bitters
Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top to create aromatic 'sockeyed' notes and mild color contrast.
Garnish & Serve

Garnish the drink with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and an optional thin grapefruit slice floated on top. Give the drink a gentle stir (1–2 turns) to integrate the bitters and soda without flattening the bubbles.
