Paloma’s paletas
Cocktails
The paloma, that quintessential Mexican combination of grapefruit soda, lime, and tequila, rivals maybe horchata and micheladas in the realm of name-checked Angeleno drinks. From a fresh paleta company comes one that’s, well, cooler. Edible flowers are suspended in this adorable grapefruit-lime pop. When served at sunset with tiny shots of tequila, you’ll forget all about June gloom. <br /> <br />No molds on hand? Option A: Fill small tumblers, cover with foil, and poke a short skewer or stick in them. Option B: Make a granita. Pour the paleta mixture into a shallow glass or metal baking dish and freeze for 4 hours. Be diligent. Set a timer to give a thorough stir and scrape down the sides every 30 minutes, so ice crystals don’t clump and the consistency remains smooth. The B version will keep for about a day. <br /> <br />Reprinted from The LA Cookbook by Alison Clare Steingold, published by Rizzoli c 2018.
