   Pre-chill one clear coupe and cut exactly one short narrow grapefruit-zest strip for the garnish.

   Shake hard for 10–12 seconds until the spirit-forward mixture is very cold and properly diluted.

   Fine-strain into the chilled coupe, leaving all ice fragments and citrus pulp behind.

   Express the grapefruit zest over the surface, set the single restrained twist at the rim, and serve.
