Peanut Free Classic Paloma
Few cocktails hit as refreshingly as this tart, citrus-forward classic ā it's the kind of drink that tastes like a warm afternoon on a patio, no matter where you're actually sitting. Fresh grapefruit juice and a squeeze of lime do the heavy lifting here, balanced by a touch of agave syrup and finished with a gentle pour of sparkling water for that satisfying fizz. The salted rim adds just enough savory contrast to make every sip feel intentional and complete. Because this recipe is built entirely from whole, natural ingredients ā citrus, tequila, agave, and sparkling water ā there's nothing hidden to worry about, making it a genuinely clean pour for anyone navigating nut allergies or cross-contamination concerns at a bar. Stirring everything directly in the glass keeps it simple and low-fuss, so you're not dirtying a shaker just to enjoy something this good. Garnish with a fresh grapefruit wedge and you've got a cocktail that looks as bright as it tastes.
