Cinnamon Salty Dog
This Cinnamon Salty Dog recipe post was made in partnership with Frankly Organic Vodka. Recipe and ideas are my own.
Have you tasted a Salty Dog cocktail before? It’s the type of libation that packs a punch with some bold citrus flavors and the classic salty rim. So, if you’re a fan of the sweet and savory combo then this cocktail is a match made in heaven for you!
And if you’re like me and already dreaming about the weekend, then I definitely recommend giving this cocktail a try for your mid-week happy hour treat or pair it with a seafood or chicken dish for a delicious refreshment at dinner! For a tasty cocktail that’s refreshing and thirst-quenching, the Cinnamon Salty Dog is the answer!
For this riff, I mixed together a bit of cinnamon, sparkling grapefruit juice, lime juice, Frankly Organic Grapefruit Vodka, and of course, you can’t forget the salt and lime zest rim! It’s a simple drink because you know I love cocktails that are easy to put together using ingredients you can find around the kitchen.
My absolute favorite part about this cocktail is the Frankly Organic Grapefruit Vodka! This organic vodka is made with ruby red grapefruit, apples, cinnamon, lemon juice, and maple syrup (for a touch of sweetness).
Frankly Organic Vodka’s flavored vodkas are USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, and Kosher, which is always a good thing. On the palate, this vodka blend is balanced, fruit-forward, a little smoky with an earthy essence.
