Greyhound

What is Greyhound?

The Greyhound is a two-part classic composed of gin or vodka and grapefruit juice.

In 1930, Harry Craddock published The Savoy Cocktail Book, which included a recipe for the greyhound cocktail, but it wasn't until 1945 that the drink was officially called a "greyhound" in print by Harper's Magazine, allegedly because it was a popular drink at Greyhound bus terminals.
