Fruity Refreshing

History & Origins

The Ruby Tuesday is a straightforward modern cocktail whose origin is disputed and likely emerged as a house drink at various bars during the 1980s and 1990s. Its name is often associated with the Rolling Stones song of the same title, though no direct link has been established. It belongs to a broad family of gin-and-juice highballs popularized across North America.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Tart cranberry upfront with a subtle juniper note from the gin and faint pomegranate sweetness from the grenadine. Palate: Crisp and juicy cranberry dominates, with gin botanicals providing herbal structure and grenadine rounding the edges with gentle sweetness. Finish: Dry, slightly tart, with a clean citrus-like fade.

Pro Tip

Pour the grenadine last and avoid over-stirring so it layers slightly at the bottom for visual appeal.
