The Sea Breeze has gone through a number of different Recipes throughout its life. The drink was a prohibition era cocktail originally containing Gin and Grenadine. The recipe later grew to involve Cranberry Juice partially because of Ocean Spray. This cocktail is closely related to the Bay Breeze, which substitutes the Grapefruit Juice for Pineapple Juice, the Cape Codder, which lacks Grapefruit Juice, and the Greyhound and Salty Dog, which lack the Cranberry Juice. This is an Official IBA Cocktail.
