How to make a Paloma cocktail
When you think of drinking tequila in Mexico you might think of margaritas. But the paloma is even more popular there and for good reason. This tequila cooler is long refreshing and super easy to make just what you need on a hot day.
Some fancy versions call for fresh grapefruit juice simple syrup and club soda but the classic (and easiest!) version is made with just blanco tequila fresh lime and a chilled bottle of grapefruit soda. You can add a pinch of salt to the ice or rim of the glass.
When it comes to grapefruit soda Squirt and Jarritos Toronja are the go-to options. They taste delicious in this drink! If you can't find them you can try other brands of grapefruit soda like Q Grapefruit Ting Izze or even Fresca. (For the record as much as I love San Pellegrino's Pompelmo I don't think it would work that well in a paloma.)
