If you go down to Mexico and ask a Mexican what Mexicans drink, you won’t hear anything even remotely similar to the word “margarita.” Margaritas are the guilty pleasure of Americans, not the traditional drink of Mexico. If you want something closer to what they’re drinking south of the border, you need to get the La Paloma. A classic La Paloma has only four ingredients: Reposado tequila, fresh lime juice, grapefruit soda, and a pinch of salt (DO NOT omit the salt). That’s it. Mix everything together in a tall glass with some ice, stir it all together, and enjoy.
