(Greyhound with salted rim)Across the street from our hotel was this cute little bar, The Tipsy Crow. Their sign reading “Home of the Salty Dog” tempted me from the moment I checked in. I had to try this thing! I was not disappointed!

  5. Okay, don't laugh at me but I didn't know what a Salty Dog was so at first I thought you had done something really creative with a hot dog and a grapefruit! :) But this drink looks amazing! I have to give this a try!

  7. this cocktail looks so yummy, but I can't have grapefruit due to certain medications I have to take. Do you have another vodka based drink I could try? And I love grapefruit

    • Hey Jo, thanks for stopping by! So sorry to hear you can't have grapefruit! Here is a link to my other cocktails, most of them are vodka based. A couple of my faves are the red berry sangria and the raspberry lemon drop! https://www.thecookierookie.com/category/recipes/drinks/

    • Jo, talk to your doc about the grapefruit. Hubby also takes meds that clash with grapefruit. However, his doc said (A) it's okay to eat grapefruit in the AM since he takes the meds in the PM and (B) the benefits of the grapefruit outweigh whatever the negative effects are. So, ask your doc about it. Hubby now enjoys his morning grapefruits again!

  11. The pictures are lovely. Clarification: A Salty Dog is a Greyhound with salt around the rim. With that said, the juice base is grapefruit. However, the liquor may change from vodka to gin with vodka being predominant. As a former bartender I needed to comment. On a funny note, years ago a friend started bartending and reached out while working asking "What's a Greyhound?" I explained, but had to ask how she responded to the customer. Fast thinking as ever she said "I told him the bus didn't stop here."
