After buying tons of grapefruit from a co-worker's son for a high school fundraiser, I tried this recipe and my oh my, am I glad I did! I used vodka instead of gin just because that's what I had on hand, and added a packet of Splenda for a little sweetness. Very refreshing!

This is a great drink. I make mine with vodka instead.

Move over, Rover, there's a Salty Dog in town! This recipe alone gives one reason to keep gin in the freezer and grapefruit in the fruit bowl all summer long. Cheers.

Really good & fresh, felt healthy tasting (even though I am drinking BA-HOOZE)! Easy to make, thanks!

LOL!!I pulled off a couple of shopping bags worth of grapefruits just yesterday(being a grape grower I think we need to change the name of grapefruit!!), squeezed them and made vodka "Salty Dogs". Yummo!

Love, love, love this cocktail! So simple. I used 1/2 grapefruit, a teaspoon af simple syrup, and a jigger of gin. I salted the rim with coarse salt. Perfect! I think I'll have a double next time! I enjoy the taste of gin, but the drink works equally well with vodka. The grapefruit hides the alcohol taste, so be careful not to drink too much!
