The Paloma (Little Dove) is one of the most popular Mexican tequila-based cocktails, comparable in flavor to the more famous Margarita. It's made with lime and grapefruit juice, grapefruit soda, and a pinch of salt. The salt really adds a rich flavor to the cocktail. For a more vibrant and appealing presentation, add a splash of grenadine to each glass.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup tequila
• 1 cup grapefruit juice
• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
• 0.5 tsp. grenadine
