Best Paloma Recipe

The Best Paloma Recipe mixes tequila with fresh grapefruit juice, a splash of Squirt soda, and a squeeze of lime served over crushed ice. This cocktail balances tart citrus with soda sweetness and the warmth of tequila for a refreshing, light drink.

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.
