Strawberry Diamond Paloma
from Shirley’s Café & Tequila Bar
What’s special about this featured drink? What makes this drink pop is the addition of Hawaiian Black Lava Salt around the edge of the glass. It adds a very nice earthy pop that plays well with strawberry and tequila flavors.
For what occasion would you recommend this cocktail? A Paloma is a great summertime drink to have while you enjoy life outdoors, barbequing, hanging by the pool or posting up for a late-night summer fire. It's also great on those hot summer days.
