Chef notes
This is a riff on our-low proof grapefruit wine spritz — just made to be nonalcoholic! Grapefruit is always refreshing in a spritz, an extra-dry ginger ale keeps the drink bright, and the bitters ensure balance.
Swap option: You can replace the soda water and Angostura bitters with Sanbitter, a bright-red nonalcoholic Campari-like soda from San Pellegrino.
Ingredients
- 3 ounces soda water
- 4 dashes Angostura bitters
- 2 ounces dry ginger ale
- 3/4 ounce freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
- 1/2 grapefruit slice, for garnish
Preparation
Fill a highball glass with crushed ice; add soda water and bitters (or Sanbitter). Top with ginger ale and grapefruit juice.
Stir to combine, then garnish with half of a grapefruit wheel.
