Ingredients
Syrup
- 1/2 grapefruit
- 1 slice orange
- 125 g maple syrup
- 3 cardamom pods
- Pinch of coriander seeds
- 2 drops red food colouring
Cocktail
- 25 ml syrup
- 1 dehydrated grapefruit slice
- 25 ml alcohol-free grapefruit and yuzu-infused gin tonic
- Ice cubes
Directions
Syrup
- Chop the grapefruit into small chunks and put them into a saucepan along with the orange slice, maple sugar, 125 millilitres of water, the cardamom pods and coriander seeds.
- Heat the mixture until simmering and cook for around five minutes, crushing the fruit pieces with the back of a wooden spoon as it starts to soften to release the juices.
- Once the fruit has softened and the white pith has faded, take it off the heat and leave it to cool.
- If you like you can add a splash of red food colouring to the syrup at this point.
Cocktail
- Once the syrup mixture has cooled, strain it and discard the spices and fruit pieces.
- Fill a tumbler with ice and pour in 25 millilitres of the syrup, 50 ml of the grapefruit gin and tonic.
- Stir gently until the outside of the tumbler feels cold. Then garnish with a dehydrated slice of grapefruit. Serve and enjoy!
