A Paloma with hot honey is a bold, vibrant cocktail that balances bright citrus with a smoky, spicy edge. The grapefruit’s tart bite and the tequila’s earthy depth get an unexpected upgrade from hot honey, adding a touch of sweetness and just the right amount of heat. It’s refreshing, complex, and endlessly sippable—a modern twist on a Mexican classic that brings a little fire to the fiesta.
