Vodka flavoured with bison grass, an aromatic herb, brings a herbaceous flavour to this cocktail (reminiscent of vetiver), but it you don't have it on hand, use your favourite regular vodka.

Ingredients

- 1 pink grapefruit, halved
- Sugar, for sprinkling
- 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) ice cubes
- 3 oz (90 ml) bison grass vodka
- 1 oz (30 ml) store-bought grapefruit syrup (see note)

Preparation

- On a work surface, cut 1 round slice of grapefruit from one of the grapefruit halves. Juice the remaining grapefruit to obtain ¼ cup (60 ml) of juice.
- Cut the grapefruit slice into 4 pieces and place on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with sugar. Quickly caramelize using a culinary torch or under the broiler. Let cool.
- In a blender, finely crush the ice with the grapefruit juice and the remaining ingredients until frothy. Pour into two martini or margarita glasses. Garnish with the caramelized grapefruit pieces.

Note from Ricardo

Grapefruit syrup can be found in most grocery stores or made from scratch (see recipe).
