Do you love cucumber & grapefruit? Are you a gin fan? This recipe for a cucumber & grapefruit greyhound will not disappoint! You can even make this drink into a “salty dog” by adding salt to the rim of the glass! This is my variation on a classic cocktail called a “greyhound” which was actually named for the Greyhound Bus terminal! Apparently, Greyhound Bus used to have restaurants inside which served grapefruit cocktails! Fascinating! I hope you love this cucumber & grapefruit greyhound!
