This classic twist on the Paloma (which is really just changing the name of it) will keep you happy and cool as a grapefruit. This is the elastic pants of the cocktail list with adjustable soda levels to suit your needs.
Ingredients
- 2 oz blanco tequila
- 1/2 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
- 4 oz freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
- A dash of Agave Syrup
- Soda
- Ice
Instructions
- Prepare your glass by placing it in the freezer to chill. It’s a South Pole Paloma after all.
- If you are adding sugar or salt to the rim, remember to do this first, not afterwards like I try to do three Paloma’s down. Rub a lime wedge along the edge and dip into a small plate of sugar.
- Remove the glass from the freezer – obviously. Add ice to the glass. Pour in the tequila and lime juice.
- Add the grapefruit and as much or as little soda as you like. Stir gently to combine.
- Garnish with a lime wedge, grapefruit slice or miniature snowman if you have one handy.
