How to Make a Skinny Paloma with Tequila

This easy Paloma cocktail recipe needs a good tequila. And I recommend always getting SILVER TEQUILA, as gold will overwhelm the flavors in this low calorie cocktail.

I recommend “middle shelf” tequila at a minimum, here are my favorite tequila brands for making Palomas. I’ve also supplied you with a “bottom shelf” tequila I’ve come to love.

The Best Tequila for Paloma Cocktails:

  • Patron Silver Tequila (my favorite top shelf tequila)
  • Don Julio Silver Tequila (a good middle shelf tequila)
  • Piedra Azul Silver Tequila (a fantastic bottom shelf tequila)

How to Make a Skinny Paloma Cocktail:

  1. Pour some kosher salt on a plate. Rub the rim of a highball glass with grapefruit wedge, then dip rim of the glass in salt.
  2. To the same glass, add the grapefruit juice, lime juice, and zero calorie all-natural simple syrup. Stir until combined.
  3. Add the tequila, ice, and club soda. Garnish with grapefruit wedge and rosemary sprig.
