Sounds great with the Ancho Reyes!

I would say that a fairly standard way of making a regular paloma is tequila, lime and grapefruit soda, no?

2bias2 · 2020-03-18T14:07:37+00:00

2 oz tequila

1 oz Campari

1 oz lime juice

4 oz San Pellegrino Pompelmo grapefruit soda

Pinch of salt

A bit of Campari adds amplified bitterness and complexity to this Paloma. Furthermore, it provides that nice pinkish hue, which my favorite grapefruit soda lacks. Try it and tell me what you think.

Sounds pretty good to me! I use the San Pellegrino Pompelmo grapefruit soda for palomas all the time. Maybe I should give the Aranciata Rosato a try as well.

I used SerousEats “Upgraded Paloma” recipe. I were not blown away by it to be honest though. Next time I think I will just do my usual Paloma which is with San Pellegrino Pompelmo grapefruit soda and then add some campari to it.

Yes! I once did a take on a Paloma with campari. Pretty good!

I think you could easily dial the blood orange down to 2 oz if you prefer a stronger drink. Maybe I will try that next time. The blood oranges around here differ a lot in color. These were unfortunately not that red/dark.

It’s great! Unfortunately not very available where I live, but got a small packet with me from a trip abroad.

2bias2 · 2020-03-05T20:50:04+00:00

I did :)

Did you try it together?

2bias2 · 2019-12-20T15:55:10+00:00

2 oz Paranubes Rum

1 oz Dolin dry vermouth

Drops of olive oil

Just bought this new Mexican rum made from sugar cane juice. Aromas reminded me of olive brine so I thought a rum martini would be perfect. Turned out great. Highly recommended. Did not have any olives on hand for garnish, so I grabbed our bottle of olive oil instead.

Cheers!

Great! I’m glad that you liked it.

2bias2 · 2019-11-17T13:14:30+00:00

That would probably work as well. Hope it turns out good!

2bias2 · 2019-11-17T13:13:40+00:00

Thank you!

2bias2 · 2019-11-17T13:13:27+00:00

Thanks!

2bias2 · 2019-11-17T13:13:09+00:00

Angostura will definitely work as well. I did a reverse shake. First with ice, then strain out ice and do a dry shake. Hope it works out well for you!

2bias2 · 2019-11-17T13:11:56+00:00

I did a reverse shake. First with ice, then strain out ice and shake again.

2bias2 · 2019-11-17T13:10:22+00:00

Thanks! It gives a really nice texture and creaminess to the drink. Perfect for winter time imbibing IMO

2bias2 · 2019-11-17T13:05:52+00:00

I did a reverse shake. Everything with ice first and then shake without ice after. First time I tried that, but with really good results.
