I was reading an article the other day about someone who "just can't get on board with: the margarita. Too sweet, often too slushy. Too filling, getting in the way of my taco enjoyment. With salt, without, either way, I'm just not a fan." This guy really had some strong feelings about "the margarita".
Long story article, later....he has introduced me to "The Paloma"!
I have to admit, it is much lighter, not as sweet and really, really good and refreshing. Careful though, as with all adult beverages, they go down a little too easy, so be aware.
These are first up for tomorrow's (as my daughter so eloquently stated), "Cinco De Drinko" dinner!
Enjoy and Celebrate Responsibly!
The Paloma
Wet rim of rocks glass and roll in kosher or sea salt. Add ice, a shot of "good" blanco Tequila (I prefer Patron Silver), and Squirt grapefruit soda to fill. Squeeze in 1/4 lime's worth of juice, add a lime slice to the rim of the glass, and serve.
