1 teaspoon Demerara simple syrup, see Note
1 teaspoon Campari
3 dashes of grapefruit bitters
1 pinch of fine sea salt
2 ounces gin, preferably Knickerbocker or Beefeater 24

Instructions

In a rocks glass, muddle the lemon zest with the simple syrup, Campari, grapefruit bitters and sea salt. Add the gin and a few ice cubes and stir until well chilled. Top with more ice and serve right away.
