Paloma Cocktail

Looking for a quick party drink recipe? you are in the right place! This easy-to-make Paloma Cocktail is made using two main ingredients, grapefruit, and tequila. Check the recipe card below for a non-alcoholic version.

Paloma Cocktail Ingredients

• Grapefruit Juice
• Lime Juice
• Tequila
• Club Soda
• Simple Syrup
• Ice, of course!
• salt and chili powder for the rim of the glass, optional.

I used juice from fresh grapefruit for this recipe but you can use bottled grapefruit juice too. Using fresh grapefruit juice avoids a bottle of store-bought juice lying in the refrigerator for months ( I am bad at organizing my refrigerator ). I also used juice from fresh limes as I have many at home, bottled lime juice works too!

How do you make a Paloma Cocktail

• If you are using fresh juice from grapefruit and lime, squeeze the required amount of juice and keep it aside.
• On a small plate add salt, chili powder and mix together. Keep it aside to rim the glass.
• Rim your glass with salt and chili powder.
• Add grapefruit juice, lime juice, simple syrup, tequila to the rimmed glass, and add club soda and ice at the end or before serving.
• Serve as it is or with a slice of grapefruit as a garnish on top of the drink!
• For the non-alcoholic version, skip tequila and add 2 oz more grapefruit juice to add flavor to the drink.
