Paloma Cocktail
Ingredients
- Grapefruit Base:
- 3/4 cup 6 ounces freshly squeezed grapefruit juice (~ 1 grapefruit)
- 2 ounces freshly squeezed lime juice ~ 2 limes
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar
- Seltzer water
- For One Cocktail:
- 2 ounces of grapefruit mixture
- 2 ounces of tequila preferably blanco
- Seltzer water
- Garnish: grapefruit slice
Instructions
- Mix grapefruit juice, lime juice and agave nectar in a small pitcher or measuring cup. Add more agave nectar if desired. Can be made a few hours in advance and refrigerated.
- For each cocktail, fill a highball glass with ice. Add grapefruit mixture, tequila and top off with seltzer water. Stir. Garnish with a grapefruit slice.
Notes
* If you don't have agave syrup, I'd recommend substituting honey. You may need a bit more as it's not as sweet as agave nectar.
* Only making 2 cocktails? Make the recipe for 4 cocktails and freeze half in a small ziplock bag for the a future treat.
* Double or triple the cocktail base for a party. Add tequila and seltzer to glass when serving.
