Spicy Honey Paloma

Paloma & Taco pairing, just in time for Cinco de Mayo! I’m excited to show y’all my signature Spicy Honey Paloma I mixed up for Time Out America, featuring the Fever-Tree Sparkling Pink Grapefruit! Time Out has also recommended a taco to pair with my Paloma on their website! I love using the Fever-Tree Sparkling Pink Grapefruit in cocktails because it is so versatile and pairs well with other spirits & in a pinch, you can make a DELISH 2-ingredient cocktail. Make sure you try it out, especially the next time you make a PALOMA!
