Lockdown Cocktails week 13: Salty Dog

The easing of lockdown continues, but we’re still enjoying our home cocktails. It’s not exactly sunny here but it’s warm, so today we’re going for an easy and refreshing summer cocktail. Salty Dog is a classic cocktail from the 1920s, the heyday of cocktails. Simply salt the rim of a highball glass, add a good measure of gin, a bit of simple syrup if you find grapefruit a bit tart, and top off with grapefruit juice. Delicious!
