A minimalistic, yet elegant cocktail known as Paloma consists of tequila and grapefruit soda such as Fresca or Jarritos, which makes it a perfect combination of sweet and tart. Paloma, which means dove, is one of the most popular Mexican cocktails that can even be found ready-made in soda cans.

Grapefruit soda can be substituted with freshly squeezed grapefruit and lime juice for a better, sourer flavor. The cocktail is typically served on the rocks in a highball glass with a lime wedge garnish.
