- If you don't have grapefruit salt, you can make your own by mixing 1/2 teaspoon of salt with 1/2 teaspoon of grapefruit zest.
- To make the drink even more refreshing, add a lime wedge or a sprig of mint.
- If you want a sweeter drink, add a little simple syrup or honey.
- This drink is also great with tequila instead of gin.
