Paloma

It doesn't feel like summer, I don't know why. Maybe it's the fact that we didn't really have a spring, we had several weeks of a monsoon. Maybe it's all the changes that have happened in my life. Who knows. But I'm trying to get into the spirit and pretend I'm on vacation, even if it's just by drinking a cocktail that makes me feel like I'm on a beach. As you know, I don't love sugar all that much so tropical drinks are never really my go to. I did find a simple recipe for a great drink that has more of the tart sweetness I love. A Paloma is simply tequila and grapefruit juice shaken over ice. I served mine with a lime wedge. Next time I might try salting the rim as well.....yum. Cheers to simple recipes and summer!
