The Perfect Summer Paloma
INGREDIENTS:
*Makes one cocktail
2 oz. Blanco Tequila (We prefer Siete Legunas, but any Artisinal brand of Blanco Tequila will work)
2 oz. freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
1 oz. freshly squeezed lime.
2 oz. Lime Topo Chico
½ oz. (1 tablespoon) of simple syrup
Rub lime or grapefruit wedge over rim of glass (ideally frosted in freezer). Dip into plate of sea salt.
Mix ingredients together in cocktail shaker with ice, strain, and serve. We garnished with a dehydrated grapefruit wheel, jalapeno slices, and fresh mint leaves. Cheers!
*To make simple syrup combine 1 cup of water with 1 cup of sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat and wait until sugar dissolves. Once sugar is dissolved add mint leaves and one sliced jalapeno with seeds removed. Let steep for 15-20 minutes before straining. Chill in refrigerator.
