Ingredients

  • 2 oz. vodka
  • 4 oz. grapefruit juice
  • salt (for rimming)
  • ice cubes

Instructions

  • Rub a grapefruit slice around the edge of the glass. Dip the top of the glass in a plate of salt.
  • Fill the glass with ice cubes
  • In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka and grapefruit juice. Shake well, 15–20 seconds. Strain the mixture into the glass. Garnish with a grapefruit slice.

Notes

  • Shake your mixture well, for at least 15 seconds.
  • Serve immediately. A Salty Dog doesn't benefit from sitting and diluting.
  • Experiment with flavored vodkas or adding a splash of soda water for a fizzy twist.
