Did someone say “Cinco de Mayo?” Palomas anyone?!
It’s our first Cinco de Mayo in Texas and we had no idea how much of a celebration it is here. We might just be a little excited to partake in the fun! I thought what better way to celebrate this day than sharing one of my favorite paloma recipes from bon appetit with you all.
INGREDIENTS
-
Kosher salt
-
1 grapefruit wedge
-
¼ cup fresh grapefruit juice
-
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
-
1 teaspoon sugar

Pour some kosher salt on a plate. Rub half of rim of a highball glass with grapefruit wedge; dip rim of glass in salt. Combine grapefruit juice, lime juice, and sugar in glass; stir until sugar is dissolved. Stir in mescal, add ice, and top off with club soda. Garnish with grapefruit wedge.
Here’s a toast to a great day!
