What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Pro Tips Before You Start

Chop ginger into small pieces to maximize flavor extraction.

Gently bruise mint leaves to release essential oils without bitterness.

Cool syrup completely before mixing cocktails.

Use fresh-squeezed juices for the brightest taste.

How to Make Your Paloma

Step 1: Make Ginger-Mint Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine honey, water, and chopped ginger.

Bring to a boil, then simmer 1–2 minutes.

Remove from heat, add leaves, cover, and steep 10–15 minutes.

Strain out solids and chill syrup.

Step 2: Build the Cocktail
Fill a glass halfway with ice.

Add pomegranate juice, grapefruit juice, juice, and ginger-mint syrup.
Stir to combine.

Step 3: Add Tequila & Top
Pour in 2–3 oz tequila. Top with ginger beer or sparkling water.

Step 4: Garnish & Serve
Garnish with fresh mint sprig. Serve immediately and enjoy the fizz.

What to Serve It With

Fresh guacamole and tortilla chips for a fiesta vibe.

Fish tacos or grilled shrimp skewers for coastal flair.

A platter of citrus-marinated olives and cheese.

Variations & Substitutions

Swap honey for agave syrup to keep it vegan.

Use lime juice instead of grapefruit for a Paloma-Lime fusion.

Add a dash of jalapeño for spicy heat.

Storage & Leftovers

Store ginger-mint syrup in a sealed jar in the fridge up to 2 weeks.

Pre-mix juices and tequila for easy batching; add syrup and fizz when serving.

FAQs

Can I make the syrup ahead of time?
Yes — syrup keeps refrigerated up to 2 weeks in a sealed container.

What ginger beer works best?
Choose a spicy, bold ginger beer for maximum kick.

Can I use simple syrup instead?
You can, but you’ll miss the fresh ginger flavor.

Is this cocktail sweet?
It’s balanced — adjust syrup to taste for more or less sweetness.

Can I omit alcohol?
Yes — skip tequila and top with extra ginger beer for a mocktail.

How much mint should I use?
8 leaves in syrup plus a sprig for garnish creates a lovely mint aroma.

Can I use bottled juices?
Fresh juices are best, but bottled works in a pinch.

Final Thoughts

This Paloma with Ginger-Mint Syrup is an easy, elegant cocktail that dazzles. With homemade syrup and vibrant juices, it’s a fresh twist on a beloved classic.
