Jalapeno Paloma Cocktail
The bright, zippy, and slightly spicy Jalapeno Paloma Cocktail is made with muddled jalapeno, fresh Ruby Red grapefruit juice, tangy lime juice, tequila, and a splash of club soda. This citrusy cocktail is the perfect addition to your Mexican fiesta, Sunday Funday, or gathering with friends!
Ingredients
- 1 jalapeno slice thicker slices = spicier drink
- 2.5 oz. freshly-squeezed Ruby Red grapefruit juice
- 2 oz. silver tequila
- 1/2 oz. fresh lime juice
- 1/2 oz. simple syrup directions in post
- 2 oz. club soda
- garnish ideas: jalapeno slice lime slice, salted glass rim
Instructions
- Either in your glass or a shaker, muddle the jalapeno slice. I like to smash it to smithereens, but I like a good amount of jalapeno flavor in my drink. (If you don't want pieces of jalapeno in your drink, make the cocktail in a shaker).
- Add the grapefruit juice, tequila, lime juice, and simple syrup to your glass or shaker, if you're using one. Give everything a nice stir/shake.
- If using a shaker, pour over a fine-mesh strainer into your glass with ice and top with club soda, and stir once more. If making in your glass, add ice, add the club soda, and stir once more. Garnish with a jalapeno slice or lime slice if desired. Cheers!
