There’s a reason a greyhound is revered as the fastest of the canines, and there’s a better reason the easy-to-drink vodka/grapefruit drink bears the same name. They’re so good, you’ll down them quickly.
Il Bracco’s signature cocktail is a frozen version of this easily loved drink but frozen and with an Italian twist. (Talk about making it more dangerous.) The pasta haven is offering these to-go for the time being, just don’t forget to order the carb-heavy pasta to soak it up when you do.
And yes, frozen drinks are hard as takeout in our 95-degree weather, but just pop them in the freezer when you get home and take them out a few minutes before you want to enjoy them at home.
Fun note: “il Bracco” means “the hound” in Italian. The name just works.
