It’s no doubt the paloma has been exponentially growing in popularity the last few years, and Fever-Tree’s marketing manager, Alexis Green, told us earlier this month that their, “Sparkling Pink Grapefruit was the most successful launch in the history of Fever-Tree in the U.S., and with the massive popularity of tequila and paloma cocktails creeping north of the border, there is no doubt that Canadians will love it just as much.” And we don’t disagree. “It perfectly complements spirits and captures the essence of easy-to-make mixed drinks with our 1+1+1 formula – premium spirit, premium mixer, and an elevated garnish,” said Green.
So with World Paloma Day creeping up on us this May 2-4 long weekend, we pulled together these refreshingly delicious cocktails you can easily enjoy–no matter where you are.
