Smoked Paloma Recipe for Cinco de Mayo with Tequila Twist

Cinco de Mayo calls for citrus, tequila, and a drink that does more than sit on the table. This smoked Paloma adds just enough smoke to make a lasting impression, and it is ideal for backyard parties, thoughtful gifting, or anyone looking to try something new with their bar setup.

Ingredients and Tools You’ll Need

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Prepare the Glass
    Rub a lime wedge around the rim and dip it in salt. Add fresh ice and set aside.
  2. Mix the Drink
    In a shaker, combine tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and syrup. Shake briefly and pour into your glass.
  3. Top It Off
    Add a splash of sparkling grapefruit soda. Stir gently.
  4. Smoke the Drink
    Place The Forever Cocktail Smoker Top on the glass. Add apple or cherry wood chips, ignite with the torch, and let smoke sit for 30 to 60 seconds.
  5. Garnish and Serve
    Remove the smoker top, garnish, and serve immediately while the aroma lingers.

Why It Works for Cinco de Mayo

The Paloma is already a Mexican classic. Smoking it brings depth and character without changing its refreshing nature. The citrus brightens the tequila, while the wood smoke adds a warm, aromatic layer, just right for laid-back celebrations or gift-worthy cocktails.
