It’s world gin day! Craig Russell, the head chef at The Spiritualist, Aberdeen, shares with us one of his favourite gin cocktails.
And you’re in for a treat! This fruity Pink Grapefruit Gin Fizz cocktail is delicious.
The cocktail replaces the usual lemon juice with pink grapefruit, which adds an interesting complexity to the drink and helps to bring out the botanicals of the gin. The slightly bitter and sweet taste cleanses the palette and primes the taste buds for the smokey salmon. The pinkish hue sits pleasantly alongside the colours of the dish for an attractive pairing.
