  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 1 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 ounces Lillet Blanc
  • 2 ounces freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
  • 1 ounce gin
  • 1/2 ounce St. Germain, elderflower liqueur
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 strip of lemon peel

Instructions

  1. Chill your coupe glass by placing it in the freezer (if you have time and remember!)
  2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.  Pour in the Lillet, St. Germain, gin, grapefruit juice, and lemon juice. Securely fasten the lid and shake the mixture for about 20 seconds, or until the outside of the shaker is absolutely cold!
  3. Strain the mixture into your chilled glass.  Gently twist the lemon peel over the drink to release the oils, and then lightly rub it over the rim of the glass before dropping it in.  Sip and enjoy!
