The Best Paloma Mocktail
We are so excited to share a simple and delicious mocktail recipe! Our new favorite drink – this Citrus Paloma Mocktail with Thyme. It can easily be made into a regular paloma cocktail, just throw in some tequila, but we are all about the delicious mocktail these days. We love drinking something fun and different but don’t love the way we feel when drinking alcohol. These are the perfect option! They are light and refreshing and you guys are going to love them!

Why This Recipe Works
- Refreshing: we love the citrus from the grapefruit and blood orange – so light and slightly sweet.
- Mocktail: whether you are doing a Whole30, you are pregnant or you just don’t want to partake in any alcohol .. this is the drink for you!
- Paleo/Whole30: perfect for those special occasions!
What You Will Need
- grapefruit + blood orange: these add that sweetness and light/refreshing citrus flavor.
- fresh lime juice: this adds a stronger bite of citrus.
- club soda: to mellow things out and add a bit of fizz.
- fresh thyme: this earthy, fresh herb adds that little extra something!
- kosher salt + ice: the salt is for the rim and the ice is to keep things chill!
- slice of grapefruit for garnish (optional): not necessary, but really finishes off the drink.
How To Make A Paloma Mocktail
The first steps to making this easy recipe are to salt the rim of the glass and then pour in all the mocktail ingredients. Add ice, garnish, and enjoy!
