Sea Breeze Cocktail
Description
This Sea Breeze Cocktail is crafted by pouring vodka into a cocktail shaker with ice, then adding freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and cranberry juice. After shaking to chill and blend, the drink is poured over ice in glasses and garnished with lime slices.
The drink's flavor is marked by the tangy bitterness of grapefruit combined with the sweet tartness of cranberry, balanced by the neutral alcohol base of vodka. The lime slices add a slight citrus aroma and can be squeezed into the drink for extra brightness.
Adjusting the vodka and juice ratios can tailor the cocktail's strength and sweetness. The recipe suggests the possibility of preparing the cocktail a few hours ahead and refrigerating it in a jug, ensuring to stir before serving to maintain flavor balance.
Ingredients
- 50 ml vodka
- 100 ml cranberry juice

Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality grapefruit and cranberry juices for the best flavor.
