Cocktail Description
A symphony of bright citrus and delicate herbal notes, the Grapefruit Eucalyptus Swing transports you to a sun-dappled garden with just one sip.
This sophisticated cocktail balances the clean canvas of Ketel One vodka with the wine-forward character of Lillet Blanc, while Rothman & Winter peach liqueur adds subtle stone fruit sweetness. The hint of Pernod Absinthe provides a whisper of anise that plays beautifully with the aromatic eucalyptus oil finish. Perfect for spring gatherings or whenever you need a refreshing yet complex sipper, this cocktail shines as an aperitif before dinner. Despite its elegant presentation in a Nick & Nora glass, it's surprisingly straightforward to prepare—just shake, strain, and garnish. The bright citrus notes make it an excellent companion to seafood dishes like grilled shrimp or oysters, while the herbal complexity stands up nicely to Mediterranean-inspired appetizers featuring olives, feta, and fresh herbs.
