Freshly squeezed pink grapefruit juice image

How to make:

SHAKE all ingredients with ice and strain back into shaker. DRY SHAKE (without ice) and fine strain into chilled glass.

Garnish:

Pink grapefruit zest twist (discarded) & 3 spots of Peychaud’s bitters drawn through foamy head

Comment:

Bittersweet gentian is the prevalent flavour (hence the 'Suzie' name), toned down by bianco vermouth and freshened with pink grapefruit over a fortifying grainy vodka base. Peychaud’s subtly adds its distinctive flavour.
