A radler is something like a shandy, combining beer and juice, sold ready-mixed. This cocktail uses a grapefruit radler spiked with gin and thyme syrup for a refreshing bitter summer drink.
Method
To make the thyme sugar syrup, combine the sugar with 200ml/7fl oz water in a pan over on a low heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Add the thyme and heat on low for 20 minutes until the syrup is fragrant. Allow to cool, then strain out the thyme. Store in a sterile bottle in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Over ice in a spritz glass pour in the gin and thyme sugar syrup then top with grapefruit radler. Stir and garnish with slice of grapefruit and sprig of thyme.
