This cocktail is VERY similar to a Paloma—another classic Mexican tequila-based cocktail. This cocktail differs in that a classic Paloma typically is made with a grapefruit-flavored soda (like Squirt) rather than fresh grapefruit juice. Although, sometimes fresh juice is added. Additionally, Palomas don't usually contain orange liqueur. Instead, they rely on the grapefruit soda to sweeten the drink.
