Paloma (Improved)
0
Reposado tequila, lime juice and grapefruit syrup are shaken, then lengthened with club soda and finished with orange bitters and a salted rim. Tart, lightly sweet grapefruit over a mellow, aged-tequila base.
This version of the Paloma replaces ready-made grapefruit soda with a homemade grapefruit syrup and a few drops of bitters. According to Dave Stolte, the Paloma itself comes from Mexico, probably from some time in the 1920s.
