History & Origin

The Greyhound predates the Salty Dog, appearing as a gin cocktail in Harper's Magazine in 1930. The vodka version gained prominence alongside other vodka-juice combinations in the 1950s-60s. Its simplicity and bright flavor make it ideal for scaling to punch service at brunches and garden parties.
