A refreshing Hudson Sage Apple Shrub Spritz in a tall glass with ice, sage leaves, and a ruby grapefruit peel garnish.

Ingredients

2 oz apple cider vinegar shrub
1 oz white verjus
5 fresh sage leaves
4 oz chilled mineral water
1 large strip ruby grapefruit peel
1 cup ice cubes
1 fresh sage sprig for garnish

Instructions

Place the fresh sage leaves in a chilled highball glass and lightly press with a muddler to release essential oils.
Add the apple cider vinegar shrub and white verjus to the glass over the sage.
Fill the glass to the brim with fresh ice cubes to keep the drink crisp.
Pour in the chilled mineral water and stir gently with a long spoon to integrate the shrub.
Express the ruby grapefruit peel over the surface of the drink to release citrus oils, then tuck it into the ice.
Garnish with a fresh sage sprig and serve immediately while effervescent.
