Tito’s Greyhound Cocktail Recipe

So how did a cocktail with vodka and grapefruit juice get the name Greyhound?

A recipe for a similar cocktail with the name “Greyhound” appears in Harper’s Magazine in 1945. “The cocktails were made of vodka, sugar, and canned grapefruit juice — a greyhound. This cocktail was served at Greyhound’s popular restaurant chain that was located at bus terminals, called ‘Post House’.”
