Ep. 25: Marg Shmarg, drink a Paloma! - Paloma & Pompelmo

Margarita is nice, but Paloma is her funner sister (yes, “funner” is a word). In this episode we talk about a mid-century classic that didn’t become popular in the states until the 2000’s, and man what a miss that was! Learn why this drink needs to be among your “go to” cocktail recipes. Oh, and just because we love our listeners SO much, we present to you 3 drinks!
