Our Honey Grapefruit Paloma is a bright, citrus-forward twist on the classic Paloma. This version balances the tequila with fresh grapefruit and lime juices along a lightly salted honey syrup. A splash of Rustic Oak’s Orange Old Fashioned Cocktail Mixer adds subtle warmth and spice, elevating the drink from refreshing to cocktail-bar worthy. Top with a splash of club soda and sweet honeycomb for beautifully balanced sip.
