Paloma with Ancho Chili

Preparation

Low
  • In a small pot, heat water, cook the ancho chili with Domino® Mascabado Sugar over low heat for 5 minutes, or until the skin of the chili is soft enough. Remove from heat and let cool. Then blend the liquid with the chili until it becomes pasty. Pour over a strainer and use a spoon to press and extract the flavor of the ancho chili; remember that you will only use the liquid generated.
  • On a flat plate, mix the ancho chili powder and salt.
  • To rim, place the rim of an old-fashioned glass over the grapefruit slices until the surface is sufficiently moist. Then pass the rim of the glass over the salt and chili mixture until completely covered.
  • In an old-fashioned glass, add 2 tablespoons of strained ancho chili juice, add ice, lemon juice, white tequila, and grapefruit soda, and mix with a spoon. Garnish with a triangle of grapefruit. Done!
