Best Paloma Recipe
Description
This Paloma cocktail uses 1.5 ounces of tequila combined with 2 ounces of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and 1.5 ounces of Squirt soda for sweetness and effervescence. A fresh lime wedge is squeezed to add a citrusy brightness before stirring gently. The drink is served in a cocktail glass filled with crushed ice and garnished with a lime or grapefruit wedge for aroma and presentation.
The balance of fresh juice and soda complements the tequila’s flavor, creating a crisp and approachable cocktail. Preparing the drink in a glass over ice preserves the chill and dilutes slightly for smoothness.
The recipe notes that ingredients can be multiplied and mixed in advance in a jar to serve large gatherings efficiently, pouring over ice at serving time to maintain freshness and chill.
