This recipe is lovingly dedicated to my friend Sofi, who introduced me to the magic of Paloma cocktails.
Many thanks to Mosaiko cocktail bar for their support and the beautiful background of this photo.
I love 3 cents pink grapefruit soda.
Make it lighter using sugar-free soda.
Use himalayan salt. It has a a pinkish tint and gives a slightly smoky finish.
