A bold, refreshing twist with a savoury edge.
Pickle lemonade has been having a moment in the States, but we think we’ve found something even better. This Grapefruit & Pickle Spritz takes that salty-sour magic and levels it up with the bright, bittersweet punch of grapefruit.
Made with Grapefruit Soda Syrup and a splash of dill pickle brine, it’s a drink that sounds a little strange but tastes just right. Zesty, tangy, and deeply refreshing, it’s the perfect mix of savoury and citrus.
Whether you’re sipping it on a sunny afternoon or shaking things up at your next dinner party, this one’s guaranteed to get people talking.
