Sea Breeze Cocktail
The Sea Breeze Cocktail mixes vodka, grapefruit juice, and cranberry juice for a refreshing drink with a balance of tart and sweet flavors. Served over ice in a tall glass and garnished with a lime wedge, this cocktail offers a crisp, fruity experience suitable for a casual or festive occasion. The combination produces a light pink color and a subtly layered taste.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 ounces vodka (see note 1)
- 6 ounces grapefruit juice (see note 2)
- 2 ounces cranberry juice see note 3, cocktail
- lime wedge optional, to garnish
Instructions
- Fill a tall glass (such as a Collins glass) with ice. Add vodka and grapefruit juice and stir to combine. Top with cranberry juice and garnish with a lime wedge.
Notes
- Use a fruity flavored vodka for a different taste experience.
- Freshly squeezed or store-bought grapefruit juice can be used according to preference.
- Substitute 100% cranberry juice for less sweetness and a paler color.
- Make a larger batch by multiplying ingredient amounts and chilling before serving.
- Shake with ice for a colder cocktail topped with a light foam, then pour over ice.
- Try variations like Winter Sea Breeze with gin, or Cape Codder with just vodka and cranberry juice.
