The summer heat is yet at its peak and coolers and cocktails may be the need of the hour. While there are many different kinds of cocktails that are classic, there are other innovative ones that people can make that are equally delicious yet heady. One of them is the Paloma, which is a tequila-based cocktail, and as it happens – it is also Paloma Week. This weather demands a chilled cocktail that can help people unwind, especially on the weekend.
From cocktails such as Paloma Margarita – a cocktail that will transport you to the enlivening land of Mexico; Taco Paloma – the herbaceous and crisp crafted tipple brings a new dimension to the classic cocktail; and Tropical Paloma – all things sweet coupled with refreshing undertones, reinvigorating the signature Paloma – each recipe features fresh, seasonal ingredients that enhance the palate and make for the perfect accompaniment to any dish.
