Futbol is Soccer Y’all (Oaxaca Paloma)

We are all getting a bit soccer crazy here in Atlanta, so let's all join in the fun! This boozy version of the Paloma takes it to new levels with flavors of mezcal and fresh grapefruit. Leave the syrup out for a less sweet version, and to moderate, if you so desire, leave out all the liquor and enjoy a grapefruit soda like no other.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz. Ilegal Joven mezcal

  • 1 oz Pamplemousse liqueur (grapefruit cordial)   

  • 1 oz. Fresh squeezed grapefruit juice

  • 1 oz. Fresh squeezed lime juice

  • Pinch Pink Himalayan Salt

  • 1 oz. Topo Chico

  • 1-2 oz. simple syrup

Garnish:

  • 1 ea Lime and Grapefruit wheel

Glassware:

  • Collins, Pint or Zombie Glass

Directions:

Combine tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice, salt, and simple syrup together in a Boston shaker.  Shake and strain into an ice filled highball glass with the Topo Chico or sparkling fizzy water of your choice. Stay bubbly and make sure to add. the sparkling water first! Garnish with grapefruit and lime slice. #metalstraw
