PERRO SALADO (TEQUILA SALTY DOG)
Submitted for Zaar World Tour 2005. This is a Tex-Mex version of the salty dog. If you have access to a sweet Texas red grapefruit, like Ruby-Sweets or Rio Stars, then it's recommended you use it in this recipe. From a special edition of Saveur, The Best of Tex-Mex Cooking. I ordered this at a restaurant once. If you're in the mood, you can double the tequila (hehe).

SALTY DOG WITHOUT THE BITE
A non alcoholic version of the salty dog usually containing vodka or gin. "Mansfield News Journal," 18th July 1952 "George [Jessel], was fortifying himself against Republicans with a strange potion out of a champagne glass. He let me have a taste, and after bystanders had turned the fire extinguishers on me and successfully resorted to resuscitation, he explained, that this drink was a Salty Dog." "It is a little something of my own invention," he said, "Just half fresh grapefruit juice, half vodka and a dash of salt, and you think any Democrat can win." Enjoy!

Steps:
- 1. Run the grapefruit slice around the rim of an old-fashioned glass (or a rocks glass), to moisten the rim. Then dip rim of glass in coarse salt. Add crushed ice to glass, being careful not to shake any salt off the rim.
- 2. Add gin (or vodka) and grapefruit juice to a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for several seconds, then pour over ice into salt-rimmed glass.
- 3. Garnish with grapefruit wedge, and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right grapefruit. A good grapefruit for a Salty Dog should be ripe, juicy, and slightly tart. Avoid grapefruits that are too sour or bitter.
- Use fresh lime juice. Fresh lime juice will give your Salty Dog a bright, citrusy flavor. Avoid using bottled lime juice, which can be bland and artificial.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different gins. There are many different gins available, each with its own unique flavor profile. Try a few different gins to see which one you like best in your Salty Dog.
- Garnish your Salty Dog with a grapefruit wedge and a lime wedge. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your drink.
Conclusion:
The Salty Dog is a classic cocktail that is easy to make and delicious to drink. It's the perfect drink to enjoy on a hot summer day or a warm winter evening. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and flavorful cocktail, give the Salty Dog a try. You won't be disappointed.
