The history of the Paloma cocktail is not well documented, but it is widely believed to have originated in Mexico. It is one of the most popular cocktails in the country and is often referred to as the “National Cocktail of Mexico.” The Paloma is made with tequila and grapefruit soda, which are both popular ingredients in Mexican cuisine and culture.
The exact origin of the Paloma is not clear, but it is believed to have first been made in the mid-20th century. Some say it was created by bartenders in the city of Tequila, Jalisco, while others attribute its invention to the workers in the tequila distilleries. The drink quickly gained popularity throughout Mexico and has since become a staple at bars and restaurants across the country.
Today, the Paloma is enjoyed not only in Mexico, but around the world. It is known for its refreshing and tangy flavor, and is often served as a pre-dinner cocktail or as a refreshing summer drink. The popularity of the Paloma continues to grow, and it remains one of the most beloved cocktails in the world. The non-alcoholic Paloma is a mocktail that captures the flavors of the classic tequila-based cocktail.
