coarse salt, for rim of glass
grapefruit, slice for garnish
1/3 cup pink grapefruit juice, freshly squeezed
2 tablespoons vodka
1 tablespoon campari liqueur or 1 tablespoon grenadine
1 cup ice cube

Steps:

  • Place salt in a saucer. Moisten the rim of a glass with a grapefruit slice. Dip rim in salt.
  • Combine juice and vodka with Campari or grenadine in the jar of a blender; blend. With the motor running, add ice until fully incorporated and slushy. Pour into prepared glass.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality vodka. Vodka is the base of the Salty Dog cocktail, so it's important to use a good quality vodka. Look for a vodka that is smooth and has a clean flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. The Salty Dog cocktail is a classic, but there are many ways to make it your own. Try using different types of grapefruit juice, vodka, or salt. You can also add other ingredients, such as lime juice, orange juice, or bitters.

Conclusion:

The Salty Dog cocktail is a refreshing and flavorful drink that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a delicious and refreshing cocktail, give the Salty Dog a try.
