Method
Prepare Glass
- 1
Run the grapefruit wedge around the rim of a chilled highball or large coupe glass to moisten the edge.

Top with Prosecco
Gently top the drink with chilled Prosecco (about 2 oz). Pour slowly over the back of a spoon or down the side of the glass to preserve bubbles and create a light foam.
- 7
Adjust (optional)
If you prefer a lighter, slightly sweeter Paloma-mosa, add 1 oz grapefruit soda instead of 1 oz of the Prosecco or add it in addition to the Prosecco and stir gently once.
Finish & Serve
- 8
Garnish with a grapefruit twist or wheel on the rim, and optionally drop the wedge into the drink for extra aroma.
- 9
Serve immediately with a short stirring straw so the guest can combine layers if desired.
