paloma

You know what goes great with Taco Tuesday? A refreshing paloma!

A Paloma is a popular cocktail that originated in Mexico. It typically consists of tequila (usually blanco or reposado), grapefruit soda (such as Jarritos or Squirt), lime juice and sometimes a pinch of salt. It's usually served over ice in a salt-rimmed glass and garnished with a slice of lime.
