Paloma

[Mark R (LR)]

I learned this recipe for a Paloma at a Tacos & Tequila cooking class earlier this week. Excellent drink. It's a bit like a lighter, more refreshing margarita.

1 oz. grapefruit juice
1 oz. simple syrup (1 part sugar/1 part water - heat until sugar dissolves)
1 - 2 shots tequila
splash of sparkling water/club soda
splash of lime juice.

I skip the syrup & soda water, using grapefruit soda instead

They call them La Paloma in Playa Car, very refreshing

I want to go to that class!

I'll have to give the grapefruit soda a try ... if I can find grapefruit soda. Hopefully, the nearby Mexican grocery store will have it. And, yes, James - it was great fun. By the end of the evening, it was hard to hear the chef over the laughter.

Hey Mark R! This recipe looks real good to me! Can't wait to try it! By the way, finding grapefruit soda won't be too hard. Just look for Squirt at your local market.

Thanks, and good timing. I'm about to walk out the door to try to find some during lunch.
