Tequila’s smooth, citrus-kissed genius is used to create this version of the paloma cocktail as a fresh take on Mexico’s popular drink. This beverage combines the distinct richness of Don Julio Reposado tequila with zesty lime, fresh grapefruit juice and soda to create an interplay between sweet and tart flavours. With each sip, a salty rim teases the palate with an ideal contrast.
Combine the tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice and a pinch of salt in an ice-filled shaker.
Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds to cool and mix the flavours.
Strain into a rocks glass with fresh ice.
Garnish with a grapefruit wedge or lime wheel for a citrusy finish.
