Grapefruit Rickey

The Grapefruit Rickey (Refreshing beverage for the Kelowna summer heat)

One of my favourite local breweries, Kelowna's Tree Brewing, is gearing up to celebrate their 20th anniversary this year. With a focus on a variety of flavourful beer inspired by the Okanagan, Tree Brewing's Grapefruit Radler is perfect for this gin cocktail. 

Recipe

Garnish

  • lime wedge or wheel
  • straw

Directions
In a shaker, add all of the above ingredients (except the garnishes) with enough ice to fill the shaker. Shake away until the tin is ice cold. Double strain the cocktail using a hawthorn strainer and tea strainer into a tall glass with fresh ice.

Top up the cocktail with Tree Brewing Grapefruit Radler and garnish with a lime wedge or wheel.
