This refreshing, bubbly cocktail is the perfect spring sipper filled with grapefruit juice, thyme syrup, vermouth and sparkling water. Vermouth is a fortified wine, which means it’s wine distilled with a neutral alcohol, that is flavored with botanicals, like flowers, herbs, spices, and citrus. The floral notes in the vermouth complement the citrus grapefruit juice and herbaceous thyme simple syrup. Thyme simple syrup is made by simmering fresh thyme sprigs with sugar and water. Then, you mix it with freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, sweet white vermouth, and top it off with something sparkly of your choice. This grapefruit thyme vermouth spritz is simple, floral, and a great way to celebrate spring. It’s bright and light and perfect for those warm backyard afternoons.
