How To Make Frozen Palomas?

Prepare and freeze the mixture: Combine the grapefruit juice, tequila, lime juice, and simple syrup in a quart container. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until solid.
Blend the frozen Paloma: Break up the frozen mixture with a fork. Transfer half of it to a blender, add 240 ml | 1 cup of ice and ⅛ teaspoon salt, then blend until smooth.
Serve the Paloma: Divide the blended mixture between two highball glasses. Repeat the process with the remaining frozen mix, ice, and salt.
Garnish and enjoy: Garnish each glass with a wedge of ruby red grapefruit and serve immediately in its frozen form.

Recipe Tips:

Use fresh juice : Freshly squeezed grapefruit and lime juice taste much better than store-bought juice.
Freeze it long enough : Freeze the mixture for at least 6 hours, but if you can, let it freeze overnight for the best results.
Break the frozen mix properly : Break up the frozen mixture with a fork before blending so it blends smoother.
Don’t forget the salt : Adding a little salt is important because it balances the sweetness and brings out the flavors.
Blend in smaller amounts : Blend half of the frozen mixture at a time for a smoother texture and to avoid overloading the blender.

How To Store Leftovers?

Freeze: If you have leftover Frozen Palomas, you can refreeze them in a sealed container for up to 1 week. When ready to enjoy, break up the frozen mixture with a fork and blend again before serving.
