My wife brought home some starfruit from the store for the family to try. This started as a riff on a Paloma, but migrated to more of a martini as I started to build.

Slice one starfruit (setting one slice to the side for a garnish). Place remaining fruit in a cocktail shaker, muddle, and add remaining ingredients. Add ice and shake until chilled. Double strain into a coupe and garnish with a starfruit slice.

Editor's Note

Muddled starfruit brings a unique tart, grape-like character to this gin sour. A dash of salt brightens the fruit, while Cointreau adds a classic orange backbone.
