How to make a Paloma | Tequila drinks for Cinco de Mayo

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Ladies & Gentleman, we are starting a special segment. We are making 5 different videos showcasing Agave spirits in cocktails. I call it the 5 for 5 special countdown for Cinco de Mayo.
Today we are making the Paloma. This is a delicious long and refreshing drink with Tequila, Lime and grapefruit soda. This wouldn't be a Liquid Memoir episode without sharing my version with you all.

    Crazy enough, I had my first Paloma last year and loved it. Can’t wait to try your version. That bottle topper is the coolest idea. Great as usual Gabe!

    If you celebrate it, What's your favorite thing to do for Cinco de Mayo? I usually like to have a bunch of tacos and share a Pitcher of margs. But this year I might make myself some other tequila drinks and have some chips and salsa

    Hey man, for a Melon margarita, do you replace the triple sec for Midori or just add the Midori to the Tequila/lime/triple sec?

  • @LiquidMemoir

    @LiquidMemoir

    3 жыл бұрын

    My guess would be to do ~.5oz (15ml) Midori, 1oz (30ml) Lime, .25oz (7.5ml) Agave Nectar and 2oz Tequila. Try that and let me know how it goes. I’m going to tackle a fresh watermelon margarita, so stay tuned for that!
