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.
