Cocktail Hour: Spicy Paloma Recipe!

This is Tara, the founder of Daysie, coming to you with a toast to hanging onto summer for just a tad longer! I met Gen and the P+P team at last summer's Creative Club launch weekend in Charleston as I was on my journey to entrepreneurism. I've since officially launched Daysie, a collection of not-so-simple syrups that are certified organic and the perfect addition to coffee, cocktails or anything else that could use an extra touch of flavor and sweetness. Today I'm excited to share a paloma cocktail recipe that has a great balance of spicy and sweet, made using Daysie Madagascar Vanilla syrup. It's the perfect way to toast to the last days of this magical season of vacationing, exploring and gathering!

SPICY PALOMA RECIPE:

Ingredients:

2oz of tequila blanco

2oz of fresh squeezed grapefruit juice

2oz of sparkling water

1oz of fresh lime juice

1/2oz of Daysie Madagascar Vanilla syrup

Instructions:

Fill your cup to the brim with ice. In a cocktail shaker add: tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice and Daysie Madagascar Vanilla syrup.

Shake. Shake. Shake. Pour over ice and top with sparkling water. Garnish with a lime and sprinkle of Tajin.

Pro tip for the perfect spicy rim: before adding ice to your glass, dip the glass rim in Daysie Madagascar Vanilla syrup; place a small amount of Tajin on a little dish and roll glass rim through the Tajin.

Cheers!
