Classic Paloma

Today we’re making classic Palomas for #WorldPalomaDay

Everyone’s out here trying to complicate a Paloma when it couldn’t be simpler. If you can make a Batanga, you can make a Paloma. The addition of salt with the slight bitterness of the grapefruit brings out more of the sweet citrus notes of the grapefruit and rounds this cocktail. Combined with a blanco tequila (I used tequilaocho ), this is one of the most simple cocktails you can make, especially for this #MDW.



 

ingredients:

  • 2 oz | 60 ml Blanco Tequila (I used @tequilaocho)

  • ½ oz | 15 ml Fresh Lime Juice

  • ¾ oz | 22.5 ml Fresh Grapefruit Juice

  • 4 ounces Grapefruit soda, chilled, to top

  • Pinch of salt

  • Salt Rim

  • Grapefruit wedge (garnish)

instructions:

Rim a collins glass with salt and add salt to bottom. Add lime, grapefruit juice and tequila then add ice. Top with grapefruit soda and stir. Garnish with grapefruit wedge.
