Grapefruit Thyme Fizz

Softer than rosemary, just as sure of itself.

  • fresh grapefruit juice3
  • thyme syrup0.5
  • fresh lemon juice0.25
  • sparkling water3
  • ice
  1. 1.Syrup the Thyme. Six sprigs steeped in warm simple syrup, off the heat, twenty minutes, then strained.
  2. 2.The Strain. Juice the grapefruit, then pass it through a fine strainer. Pulp fights fizz — jewel-clear juice is what lets the bubbles survive to the table.
  3. 3.Build and Watch the Ribbons. Juice, thyme syrup, and lemon over ice — take the second to watch the syrup sink in slow amber ribbons, then stir once.
  4. 4.Top with Fizz. Sparkling water gently down the side, two thyme sprigs crossed on top.
