These refreshing sage palomas are the perfect easy cocktail to make at home! Simple, light and made with fresh ingredients.
I know a lot of people participated in dry January this year. Or as I like to call it, “damp January.” But, now it’s a brand new month and I think we’re all a little thirsty for a good cocktail. These sage palomas are one of my go-to homemade drinks.
I used to always get a sage grapefruit vodka drink at a restaurant here in Austin. Shout out to Jack Allen’s Kitchen. However, over the years I’ve totally transformed into a tequila drinker. So, I figured I could make a Paloma version! You just need a handful of ingredients to make this super delicious drink. Silver tequila, lime, fresh grapefruit juice, sage leaves, salt, and seltzer.
