IN PARTNERSHIP WITH TEQUILA OCHO Courtesy Tequila Ocho Today is World Paloma Day and, if you ask us, the best way to honor Mexico’s national cocktail is to stir together some tequila, lime juice, and grapefruit soda and enjoy one. Courtesy Tequila Ocho We also have a tequila recommendation for you: Tequila Ocho. The Jalisco, Mexico, operation works in an exacting, old-school style, and in some ways it’s more similar to a serious natural winery than to the big producers down the road. It’s the first tequila made from the agaves grown on a single estate, which are harvested when extremely ripe and slow roasted in stone ovens. The only other ingredient in the mix is water, then ambient yeasts kickstart a natural fermentation. This artisanal approach creates a spirit with nuances that can be appreciated neat—and that also shines brilliantly in the iconic Paloma. |
