This refreshing Grapefruit Paloma Tonic is a tasty update to a traditional Paloma with the addition of Fitch & Leedes premium grapefruit tonic! The perfect summer cocktail!
Every summer has a drink that I feel like defines the season. This summer's signature cocktail has got to be the Paloma.
Refreshing and citrusy, this tequila based cocktail is one of my all-time favorite drinks when the weather starts warming up.
My updated take adds Fitch & Leedes Premium Grapefruit Tonic and fresh grapefruit juice for an extra citrusy, bubbly drink you're sure to make again and again!
