06 / 06Signature cocktails

Tequila, grapefruit and lime meet Amaro Yerba. Citrusy and lively, with a lingering herbal note.

Inspiration: The tequila-and-grapefruit pairing of the Paloma opens up to the character of yerba mate. Amaro Yerba adds a botanical dimension to the freshness of the cocktail.
Profile: Grapefruit brings freshness and a bittersweet note, lime adds tension. Tequila and Amaro Yerba build the body of the drink, carried by the fizz of the soda.
Occasion: For an outdoor aperitivo, served long over ice, with the scent of grapefruit completing the glass.
