We reviewed Buzzbox’s Good Margarita earlier this yr, and at this time we are attempting their Tequila Paloma. I used to be blissful to see that they’ve modified the form of the cocktail field in order that it now not resembles a youngsters’s juice field, however it’s nonetheless eco-friendly and recyclable (together with the cap, which is plant-based). There isn’t absolute settlement concerning the elements in a traditional Paloma, so it helps that the field lists its contents: tequila together with pink grapefruit and lime juices. Let’s give it a attempt.
Shaken and sipped out of the field, this cocktail comes on slightly too robust with overly candy flavors of grapefruit juice focus adopted by some sharp lime citrus and a lightweight alcohol burn that tastes extra like vodka than tequila. Whereas nonetheless not implausible, I discovered the Paloma improved once I poured it over ice. With some dilution, the cocktail exhibits extra balanced flavors of grapefruit juice and slightly lime juice. The alcohol can also be higher hidden, however I’d nonetheless wish to see a bit extra tequila character. I wouldn’t mistake the Buzzbox Tequila Paloma for a freshly made cocktail, however it’s refreshing sufficient and fulfilling when poured over ice to advantage a spot within the solar by a pool.
