I think 50 is a pretty important birthday! It’s the half century mark! I honestly cannot believe it’s already here. It doesn’t even seem possible, but yet here we are. I’m 50! I decided to drop this recipe exactly at the time I was born, which was 9:45am on December 20th! I wanted to commemorate the occasion by creating my very own cocktail for the special day! A very fabulous cocktail with all my favorite things! Citrus and floral are the stars of this show with a touch of pink bubbles to top it off at the end! I can’t think of a better way to enter this next season! Cheers to a beautiful life🎂🥂💃

Ingredients

• *For the Grapefruit Simple Syrup*

• 1 cup 1 Freshly Squeezed Grapefruit Juice

• 1 cup 1 Sugar

• *For the Cocktail*

• 2 oz 2 Hendricks Gin Flora Adora

• 1 oz 1 Grapefruit Simple Syrup

• 1 oz 1 Grapefruit Juice

• 1 oz 1 Pomegranate Juice

• 1/2 oz 1/2 Lemon Juice

• Top with Brut Rosé

Directions

• To begin, preheat stove top to medium and place ingredients for simple syrup in small sauce pot. Bring to simmer and stir, dissolving sugar into the grapefruit juice. Remove from heat and let cool
• Add all ingredients for cocktail in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain into martini glass
• Top off your cocktail with a splash of brut rosé for a nice sparkle! Enjoy with a garnish of mint and grapefruit

Notes

• This recipe is very easy to modify. If you are not a fan of floral, have no fear! Just use regular gin. I tested it both ways and it’s just as good. You can also sub vodka if you’re not a fan of gin.
