Salty Dog

Salty Dog cocktail

A refreshing, savory twist on the Greyhound cocktail. This classic highball combines the botanical notes of gin with tart grapefruit juice and a hint of salt to enhance the citrus flavors. While traditionally served with a salted rim, this variation incorporates the salt directly into the drink for a consistent savory profile. Vodka may be substituted for gin for a smoother finish.
