1/3 cup pink grapefruit juice
1/3 cup vodka
1 teaspoon grenadine

Steps:

  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different garnishes: In addition to the classic grapefruit twist, you can also garnish your Greyhound cocktail with a lime wedge, an orange slice, or a sprig of rosemary.
  • Serve your Greyhound cocktail chilled: The Greyhound cocktail is best served chilled, so be sure to shake or stir it with ice before straining it into a glass.

Conclusion:

The Greyhound cocktail is a classic and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a delicious and refreshing cocktail, be sure to give the Greyhound a try.
