See this content in the original post

The Non-Alcoholic Paloma made with Everleaf Marine is a bright, refreshing twist on the classic Paloma that highlights coastal botanical notes from Everleaf Marine, balanced by the vibrant tartness of pink grapefruit and lime. Adding agave nectar rounds out the flavours with a soft, natural sweetness.

On the nose, the cocktail opens with a fresh and invigorating aroma of zesty pink grapefruit, complemented by Everleaf Marine’s distinctive coastal notes of seaweed, citrus blossom, and a delicate floral undertone. Hints of lime zest and agave provide a sweet, earthy backdrop that evokes a seaside breeze.

TASTING NOTES:

On the palate, the Everleaf Marine delivers a unique, briny complexity, with soft notes of samphire and bergamot adding depth to the bright citrus base. The pink grapefruit soda brings a juicy, tangy burst that pairs beautifully with the tartness of fresh pink grapefruit and lime juice. The agave nectar adds a smooth, natural sweetness that tempers the bitterness of the grapefruit, ensuring a balanced and refreshing sip.

The combination of citrus and marine botanicals creates a light, crisp, and slightly savoury profile. The Everleaf Marine contributes a distinctive coastal essence that lingers beautifully. The drink has a rounded mouthfeel, with the grapefruit's bitterness and the lime's acidity balanced by the agave's earthy sweetness.
