grapefruit cocktail

The Paloma is a refreshing, thirst-quenching alternative to the traditional Margarita.  This version is made with freshly-squeezed grapefruit and lime juices, smooth tequila and filled with Club Soda.  Citrus fruit can vary in sweetness so if the grapefruit juice is naturally too sweet, a bit of agave nectar can be added to sweeten it up if desired.  A perfect warm-weather sipper or for Cinco de Mayo celebrating!

Best Cantaritos Recipe

lemon juice

tequila blanco

Grapefruit soda

Lime, lemon, or grapefruit wedge

Lime & salt rim

Chamoy & Tajin rim

If you&rsquo;re using a jarrito, submerge it in a large bowl of water while you prep the rest of the ingredients. If you&#39;re using a regular glass, fill it with ice and water.

Remove the jarrito from the water or empty out your glass. Fill it halfway with ice.

Squeeze the orange, lemon, lime, and grapefruit juice directly into the jarritos or into a cocktail shaker or cup. Add the tequila and salt, then stir.

If you&#39;ve used a cocktail shaker or cup, pour the citrus and tequila mixture into your serving jarrito or serving glass. Fill the cup to the top with grapefruit soda.

Garnish your cantarito with a pinch more salt on top and a wedge of lemon, lime, orange, or grapefruit. Serve it with an optional lime &amp; salt or chamoy &amp; Tajin rim. Happy drinking!

My new go to Paloma. So much better than other recipes I’ve tried and so easy!!

Pinned this to make soon! So, you used pink grapefruit? Do you think it would matter what type of grapefruit is used?

I love a good Paloma on a sunny day.  This recipe was amazing!

Oh, how I love Palomas! And this one with Mezcal was just what I needed to start Spring *really* well!

This is a flavorful summer drink that feels like something special Great recipe for a picnic or party.
