Paloma Fresca

We’re huge fans of the Paloma, a refreshing tequila cocktail with grapefruit soda. It’s even better with real, fresh pink grapefruit, so we worked out the proportions for this recipe.

Ingredients
- 2 parts Blanco tequila or Aged tequila
- 1 part Lime juice
- 4 parts Grapefruit juice
- ¼ part Agave nectar or Simple syrup
- 2 parts Sparkling water
Instructions
The agave (or simple) syrup is optional. Add your tequila and juices to your shaker first, stir it a bit, and taste – if it needs to be a little sweeter, add the syrup and taste it again.
Once you’ve added the appropriate amount of sweetener, add ice and shake. Strain into an ice-filled glass and top with the sparkling water. Garnish with a wedge or wheel of lime.
