Celebrate summer with the Sea Breeze cocktail

The Sea Breeze cocktail blends the flavours of cranberry and grapefruit juice with the smoothness of vodka, garnished with a twist of lime.

The Sea Breeze cocktail is part of a family of cocktails known as ‘sours’, which typically combine a base spirit with a sour fruit juice and a sweetener. In the case of the Sea Breeze, the sour component is grapefruit juice, which is balanced by the sweetness of cranberry juice, and complimented by the base spirit vodka.

This light and fruity cocktail brings a taste of summer to your weekend start, making it the perfect sundowner choice.
