Say hello to the Peach Paloma, a juicy, fizzy twist on the classic that’s made for sunny afternoons. Yuzu and peach join fresh grapefruit and tequila, then a splash of soda tops it off for a refreshing sipper. It’s a quick and easy crowd-pleaser for patios, barbecues and backyard hangs. Rim the glass with salt for a classic finish, or go with Tajín if you like a little kick.
Tasting Notes: Ripe peach and bright grapefruit lead, with a zesty yuzu citrus edge. The tequila adds a clean, peppery backbone, and the soda keeps it light, crisp and refreshing.
