Grapefruit, Rose, and Three Centuries of Practice
If the Peach & Orange Blossom spritz is the lush one, this is the crisp one: zesty, mouth-watering grapefruit up front, the refined elegance of rose petals behind it — the brand's own words, and accurate. The build is identical to its sibling: real Ketel One Vodka re-distilled with botanicals, natural essences, sparkling water, 89 calories, zero sugar. It drinks like a Paloma that went to finishing school. See the full Ketel One range or browse all ready-to-drink cocktails.
Tasting Notes
Bright and zesty: fresh grapefruit pith and juice, a floral rose lift that stays elegant rather than soapy, over a neutral vodka-soda base. Dry, lightly bitter in the grapefruit way, and very clean — the rose extends the finish without sweetening it.
How to Enjoy
Well chilled in a wine glass over ice with a grapefruit slice — the brand's serving suggestion, and the right one. The aromatics open beautifully in a glass; from the can it's crisper and more direct. Either way, serve cold.
