Paloma Brava

Miguel Aranda

The Paloma Brava is a bold and refreshing cocktail that combines the smoothness of Santera Reposado Tequila with the zesty flavors of fresh lime and grapefruit juices, and a kick from ginger liqueur and serrano peppers. Garnished with fresh mint and chili salt, this cocktail offers a perfect mix of tangy, spicy, and refreshing elements.
