Hello Darlings!
In light of my exciting announcement yesterday, I thought it
might be fun for the cocktail this week to be yoga themed! The Salty Dog is a
well-known gin drink so I put a little spin on it to transform it into the
Downward Facing Dog! When I think yoga, I think healthy living and the Indian
lifestyle from which yoga originated. I added a bit of coconut water for a
healthy bit of hydration and swapped the regular salt rim for a dusting of Pink
Himalayan Sea Salt!
Ingredients:
- 2 Ounces Gin
- 2 Ounces Grapefruit Juice
- 2 Ounces Coconut Water
- Pink Himalayan Sea Salt
Instructions:
1. Add gin, grapefruit juice, and coconut water to a
cocktail shaker.
2. Add ice and shake vigorously.
3. Get your glass ready to rim by rubbing the edge in the
leftover grapefruit rind. If you used ready-made grapefruit juice, a lemon or a
lime wedge would work for this as well.
4. Place wet rim into a saucer of loose Pink Himalayan Sea
Salt. Rotate to cover well. Tap the glass to remove any loose salt.
5. Add ice to your salt-rimmed glass and pour in liquid
mixture.
6. Garnish with a grapefruit peel spiral.
7. Enjoy!
