History & Origins

The Greyhound's origins date to a 1945 Harper's Magazine article that referenced 'a greyhound' as the name for a vodka and grapefruit juice cocktail served at bus stations. The drink became popular throughout the mid-20th century as canned grapefruit juice became widely available. Its sleek, minimal profile aligns it with the Greyhound bus brand's image of speed and simplicity.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: fresh grapefruit citrus with a clean vodka spirit note. Palate: tart and slightly bitter with the grapefruit's natural acidity and quinine-like bitterness balanced by its own juice sweetness and the clean neutral vodka. Finish: dry, citrusy, and refreshing with a lingering grapefruit bitterness.

Pro Tip

Use freshly squeezed grapefruit juice rather than bottled for the brightest, most complex flavor — the natural oils from the fruit add aromatics that pre-squeezed juice loses over time.
