Cinco de Mayo party plans? Serve this Italian Piñata cocktail that plays on the classic Paloma with the addition of a little Italian aperitivo, Aperol. Sweet, tangy, bitter and smoky, this drink hits all the right notes for summer sipping.
Add ingredients to an ice-filled glass. Stir. Garnish with lemon wheel and grapefruit wedge. Serve.
Combine grapefruit juice, tequila and Aperol in a punch bowl and squeeze in juice from lemon (you may need more or less lemon depending on the acidity of the grapefruit juice). Stir well to combine flavours, then add ice, soda and slices of grapefruit and lemon to garnish. Serves 6.
