Macadamia Free Classic Tequila Paloma
Bright, citrusy, and endlessly refreshing, this tequila-and-grapefruit cocktail is the kind of drink that makes any occasion feel like a warm evening on a patio. Fresh grapefruit juice and a squeeze of lime do all the heavy lifting here, delivering a tart, lively flavor that no bottled mixer can match. A salted rim adds just the right savory contrast, while a splash of sparkling water keeps everything light and effervescent. The optional agave syrup lets you dial in the sweetness to your exact preference without overpowering the natural citrus brightness. Every ingredient in this recipe is naturally free from tree nuts of any kind, so there's zero guesswork about what's in your glass. It comes together in minutes with nothing more than a glass, some ice, and a good squeeze of fresh fruit ā no blender, no fuss, no compromise. Serve it immediately while the bubbles are still lively and the ice is perfectly cold.
