The preparation

3 steps, about 3 minutes start to finish.

  1. 01

    Combine gin, maraschino liqueur, grapefruit juice, and lemon juice in a shaker with ice.

  2. 02

    Shake and strain into a glass with ice.

  3. 03

    Top with club soda.

lightbulb The chef's notes

“Go easy on the maraschino liqueur, since it's intensely floral and a heavy hand takes over the whole drink, so measure that half ounce rather than free-pouring. Top with soda after straining to keep it lively.”
