I’m beginning with one in every of my favorite drinks of the bunch. This Paloma is all things Holiday…and it’s perfection…fizzy, minty, gingery, choked with sweet pomegranate, and um hard liquor too! excellent drink to combine up for any vacation party. The straightforward sweetener makes enough for a minimum of four drinks, however will simply be doubled, or tripled, for an oversized batch of drinks. My special Christmas bit to those drinks though?
Ginger Beer It’s not traditional in Palomas, but it’s so much better than using club soda and adds a killer ginger flavor, which to me, just screams the holidays! Of course, if you prefer, you can obviously use club soda or anything with some fizz! Either way, these drinks are going to be delish! Bring on the holiday festivities!
