Celebrating with a Paloma

Recently my daughter Kristin and I celebrated her birthday at Cosme, a lovely Mexican restaurant in Manhattan. We began our brunch with a crisp and refreshing Paloma, the perfect brunchtime cocktail to go with our exquisite and delectable meal. As luscious and scrumptious as the cocktails and meal were, they could not compare to the lovely time I had with Kristin.
