    Notes

    This recipe serves one person. To make more, just double or triple the ingredients.
    The drink can be made ahead of time, but add the ginger beer just before serving to keep it fizzy.
    For a non-alcoholic version, replace the vodka with extra grapefruit juice or soda water.
    Adjust the simple syrup to taste, as grapefruit can be quite tart.
    Try using different herbs like thyme or basil for a twist on the recipe.
