I love making cocktails. It is another outlet for me to be creative. I remember when I first got into cocktail making. I bought Campari and basically said I would never buy it again! It is amazing how you grow and your taste buds change.
For this cocktail, it is a spin on a drink I had years ago at this event. It was so refreshing and the tarragon was a fantastic surprise and paired wonderfully with the grapefruit. It opened my eyes how to creative cocktails can become with everyday items such as herbs! This is a quick drink that will be perfect for the upcoming warm evenings. Just make a few cocktails and sit back and relax. Cheers.
