What is a Paloma?
Paloma-style drinks put grapefruit at the centre, usually combining citrus freshness, mild bitterness, sweetness and bubbles. Recipe styles vary from grapefruit soda to fresh juice and sparkling mixers.
What to notice
Typically served tall over ice. Notice whether the grapefruit tastes fresh, sweet, bitter or soda-like and how carbonation changes the finish.
Alcohol-free option
Grapefruit, lime and sparkling water make the style straightforward to adapt as an alcohol-free highball.
