Like taking a sour patch kid (first they’re sour then they’re sweet). Our paloma is a balance of the sweet, bitter, juiciness of a grapefruit with a backbone of our own 100% agave tequila. Throw some salt in the mix and your tastebuds will give up and just ask for more. As the perfect compliment to our Margarita we love the way grapefruit, lime juice and tequila interact to make this “still” version of a classic Paloma. Who doesn’t love a pink drink…?
 

Ingredients: Premium Blanco Tequila, Pink Grapefruit Liqueur, Rio Red Grapefruit Juice, Lime Juice

At Golden Rule, balance is everything. For our Negroni, we developed our own signature bitters, paired with a nine-botanical gin in the classic English dry style, bold, and juniper-forward. The finishing touch comes from our friends at Rockwell Vermouth in Sonoma County, whose classic sweet vermouth blend delivers its own harmony of sweetness and bitterness, layered with botanicals like Black Mission fig, sarsaparilla, roasted dandelion root, and California sagebrush.

Chill, shake, and pour neat. Dress it up with an orange twist over a large rock, or enjoy it chilled and shaken straight from the can. Spirit-forward, unapologetically bitter, elegantly sweet and unmistakably Golden Rule. We think this one will quickly become a fan favorite.
