Prepare a highball glass by lightly brushing the rim with simple syrup, then roll the rim into the salted fruit-sugar mixture. Next, fill the glass with ice. Add the vodka, pluot juice, lime juice, simple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Finally, top the drink with soda water and stir gently to combine all ingredients.
Bartender Technique Notes
*Pluot Juice: Blend pluots (and peaches, if desired) with water; fine-strain to remove solids
**Rim Dust: Dehydrate pluot pulp and lime zest, grind finely, and mix with sugar and salt
