Erica took a classic Paloma and put her own spicy twist on it with the Jalapeño Paloma. The slight spice from the jalapeño syrup plays well with the grapefruit – just add Dano’s 100% agave Blanco Tequila, and let your imagination soar to a tropical paradise, where you can pretend it’s not dark at 4:30 pm.
