Ingredients
For the Tajin rim:
- lime juice
- Tajin seasoning for rimming the glass (see note 1)
For the paloma:
- 2 strawberries hulled and coarsely chopped, plus more for garnish
- 2 ounces tequila (1/4 cup, see note 2)
- 1/2 ounce lime juice (1 tablespoon) plus more for rimming the glass
- ice
- 2 ounces grapefruit soda or to taste (see note 3)
Instructions
- In a shallow dish as wide as a lowball glass, add Tajin. Squeeze or brush some lime juice onto the side or rim of a glass, then dip into the Tajin and turn to coat.
- In the bottom of a cocktail shaker, muddle the strawberries. Add tequila and lime juice, then fill the shaker with ice.
- Shake vigorously until chilled, about 30 seconds. Strain into the rimmed cocktail glass, top with grapefruit soda, and garnish with a strawberry.
Notes
- Tajin seasoning: Tajin is a mild chili powder with a bright lime flavor that tastes great with cocktails. Or, try regular chili powder, ancho chile powder, paprika, or even cayenne pepper (if you love the heat).
- Tequila: Tequila blanco is lighter in body and perfect for making cocktails like this one. Tequila reposado (which means "rested" and is aged in oak for at least 2 months) is ideal for sipping.
- Grapefruit soda: Mexicans usually use Squirt or Fresca (their Fresca is different! It's not sugar-free!). If you want something made without corn syrup, look for Jarritos or Izze brand grapefruit sodas.
- Yield: This recipe makes 1 cocktail.
