Tex&Co Sipper

2 oz Gin, Roundhouse
1 1⁄2 oz Grapefruit cordial (See note)
4 lf Mint
3 oz Soda water
Instructions

Smack mint, add gin and grapefruit cordial to shaker with ice - shake. Strain if you like, but I prefer the torn mint leaf "garnish". Pour over ice and top with soda.

Notes

To make Grapefruit cordial, warm 1 cup each grapefruit and lemon juice. Add 1 cup sugar, and stir until dissolved. Let cool, then add the zest of 1 or 2 grapefruit. Chill overnight, then strain.

History

A play on the Southside using Imbibe's delicious grapefruit cordial recipe.
