Put down your margaritas and pick up this spicy Paloma! It's a simple, refreshing drink with a kick of jalapeno peppers and a great option for other tequila-based cocktails. Once you try it, I know this drink will be in regular rotation!
The combination of grapefruit soda with fresh lime juice and tequila is an excellent complement to the spicy infused vinegar making this refreshing cocktail for folks looking to bring the heat to their brunch game.

Instructions
I've got a new cocktail for you, and I'm pretty excited about it.
The Spicy Jalapeno Grapefruit Paloma is the perfect way to get your drink on while keeping refreshing! Here's how you make it:
1. In a cold cocktail shaker with ice, add 1 oz tequila Blanco, ¾ oz grapefruit juice, and ½ oz lime juice
2. Shake well until chilled
3. Strain your drink into a tall glass filled with crushed ice
4. Top with club soda and garnish with pickled jalapenos or habaneros for some additional heat (make sure to remove seeds if you want it less spicy!)
Recipe Notes
Get your Paloma fix without spending the whole night at the bar.
The grapefruit and jalapeno garnish adds a nice kick to this cocktail, but if you want to take it up a notch, try adding habanero peppers or even pickled peppers! Just be sure to remove the seeds from your habaneros if you want it less spicy!
Make your next cocktail a little spicy with this spicy-sweet cocktail that combines tequila and fire cider vinegar. I recommend adding it to a glass of grapefruit soda, but you can also add a splash of seltzer water if you like more fizz.
Turn up the heat by adding sliced jalapeno peppers or lime slices to the rim of your glass before filling with ice and pouring in the drink.
