Ingredients:
1 cup water |
1/2 cup honey |
1 small cucumber, thinly sliced |
1 pink grapefruit, cut into 12 wedges |
8 ounces vodka |
1/3 cup fresh lime juice |
pink himalayan salt, in a grinder |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water and the honey. Bring to a boil and shut off the heat. Transfer to a bowl to cool. Refrigerate.
2. In a medium bowl, combine half of the cucumber slices with the grapefruit segments and some simple syrup. Muddle them by pressing down on them with a whisk to extract the juices and lightly crush the cucumbers. Add the vodka, lime juice, some more simple syrup and 1 cup lightly crushed ice. Pour into 4 rocks glasses and grind a little salt over the top. Alternatively, serve in a pitcher and sprinkle with the salt as you pour the individual drinks.
