The Paloma is a classic Mexican cocktail made with tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and a touch of sweetness. Now we add CBD or THC. It’s a refreshing and tangy drink that’s perfect for warm weather or any occasion. Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:

  1. Rim a highball glass with salt, if desired.
  2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
  3. Add the tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and simple syrup.
  4. Shake gently to combine and chill the ingredients.
  5. Strain the mixture into the prepared glass.
