Review:
A bittersweet pink grapefruit-flavoured riff on the G&T.
History:
Adapted from a recipe created in 2013 by Khristian de la Torre at Maison Artemisia in Mexico City.
Salmoncito means 'little salmon', a reference to this cocktail's colour, particularly its grapefruit supreme (a wedge of grapefruit with pith and membrane removed) garnish, reminiscent of a salmon swimming into the ice.
