Low ABV Paper Plane Cocktail (Soft Landing Recipe)
This Low ABV Cocktail is a lighter take on one of our favorite drinks to order out - the Paper Plane. Made with fresh grapefruit juice, Amaro Nonino, Aperol, and lemon juice, it’s bright, bittersweet, citrusy, and still full of flavor without as much alcohol as the classic.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 oz fresh grapefruit juice
- 1/2 oz Amaro Nonino
- 1/2 oz Aperol
- 1/2 oz lemon juice
- Pinch sea salt
- Dehydrated grapefruit for garnish
Instructions
- To a cocktail shaker - Add grapefruit juice, Amaro Nonino, Aperol, lemon juice, sea salt and ice. Shake for 20 seconds, until well chilled.
- Strain into a chilled coupe glass. If desired, garnish with a dehydrated grapefruit slice.
Notes
- Use fresh grapefruit and lemon juice: Since citrus makes up a significant portion of the drink, fresh or 100% juice will give you a much brighter flavor.
- Chill your glass ahead of time: A cold coupe keeps this citrus-forward cocktail refreshing from the first sip to the last.
