Blood Orange, Rosemary and Grapefruit Palomas

My husband and I love making cocktails come Friday! Mostly I love to use fresh fruit in my cocktails. Since blood oranges were in season these past couple of months, we were on a Paloma roll! This blog post is short, cause I just want to showcase the recipe mostly! It is a 5 minute recipe using fresh blood orange juice, lime juice, mescal or tequila, grapefruit soda and blood orange and rosemary simply syrup!

I made candied blood oranges a few times, and every time I make it, I get a beautiful blood orange and rosemary infused simple syrup from the candied blood oranges that I make, and that I keep in the fridge for my cocktails! No wastage at all!

I hope you enjoy this recipe and get a chance to make it with any other citrus since blood orange season is over now! I bet Tangelos would be fantastic in this drink! Happy almost weekend!!

 

Cheers,
