With Memorial Day Weekend under our belts, the summer season has finally arrived at Splinter Creek. One of our favorite ways to usher in the sunshine and long, lazy days is with a lakeside cocktail. Blogger Cara Greenstein shares an easy recipe for a pretty and bright grapefruit and gin spritz on her Caramelized blog. The drink was inspired by her recent stay on the property.
Serves 1
2 ounces gin
3 ounces fresh grapefruit juice
3 ounces lime sparkling water
Juice of half a lime
Orange or grapefruit peel, to garnish
Fill a tumbler with ice. Pour gin, grapefruit juice, and sparkling water in order. Squeeze lime and give a light stir. Garnish with citrus peel.
