🌶️ Cocktail #3: The Spicy Paloma (Pineapple Jalapeño Base)

Using: NV YUZY Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita — $15/bottle

This one is for the bold. The Pineapple Jalapeño brings real heat and real pineapple — a combination that's as unexpected as it is unforgettable. We're channeling Paloma energy here.

The Spicy Paloma Recipe:

• 3 oz YUZY Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita (over ice)
• 2 oz fresh grapefruit juice
• 1 oz sparkling water
• Garnish: jalapeño slice + pineapple wedge + chili-salt rim

Flavor Profile: Spicy, tropical, tart with a lingering heat
Best Paired With: Birria tacos, elote (Mexican street corn), or spicy queso
Pro Tip: Muddle a fresh jalapeño slice in the glass first if you want to amplify the heat — or skip it for a milder sip.
