Had this again. If you like a dryer cocktail consider omitting the sugar syrup. We did as our pink grapefruit are locally grown so they are a bit sweet.

This was on my Must Try list. I had actually marked the page in my Marabout book in readyess last night for the lunch aperitif (I have the Marabout edition at this location and the latest serving at another location) so looking at the recipe on paper, I thought I'lll check the online recipe just in case, and I did think it looked much more interesting with the extra goodies. As I have left over grapefruit juice left over, I will make another Must Try drink tonight, Brown Derby

Slightly lacking in acidity thus making it a little cloying, a smidgen of lime juice was enough to lift it

Great. A marriage between a martini and a salty dog. Wonderful. Great as an aperitif. Refreshing and smooth.

Hi John. Having used this wonderful site for a couple of years, I have to say your comments are the ones I look at before trying a new cocktail! Have just had 2 pompanskis so best save a salty dog for another night!

I sometimes use 1 shot grapefruit and 1/2 shot lemon which works quite well too
