The tangy, sharp grapefruit reveals hints of apple spirit smoothed by grenadine.

I used Tanqueray No.TEN to make it and put in 5ml extra lime as i was worried about it being too sweet, spot on wonderful, my wife's favourite of the day

Enjoyed this very much. Calvados was in the forefront. A tad sweet but very nice.

Was concerned about this cocktail, but found it delightful and not sweet (my concern). The ingredients work perfectly together to create a slightly sour and flavourful cocktail. We did use Laird's Applejack 86 which has a stronger apple flavour than our Calvados and it is also 86 proof. Perfect before dinner or anytime in the afternoon.
