Two Mexican drinks, made in Spain

For the perfect Paloma. For the perfect Michelada.

If you've tried to make a Paloma in Spain with a European pink-grapefruit soda, or a Michelada with American Mott's Clamato, you know it's not quite right. We make the two Mexican drinks that fix that: Chesquitos (white grapefruit soda) and Zumato (clamato-style tomato & lime drink). Both produced in Spain, both with the original Mexican recipes.

The two drinks

Both are own brands of OK Drinks SL — we make them in Spain with Mexican recipes, no imports, full EU food-safety compliance.

Chesquitos — Mexican white grapefruit soda

White grapefruit soda · 1.5 L

Chesquitos — for Paloma

"White grapefruit is less bitter than pink — and that's exactly why a real Paloma tastes the way it does."

Mexican-style soda made with white grapefruit (not pink). Europeans usually only know pink-grapefruit sodas, which are noticeably more bitter and tart. The white version has a softer, more citrus-forward profile — which is what makes the Paloma cocktail (tequila + grapefruit soda + lime + salt) drinkable all afternoon instead of biting.

1.5 L bottle — designed for bar service and Paloma cocktail rounds
Less bitter than European pink-grapefruit sodas (Schweppes, San Pellegrino) — closer to the original Mexican "Squirt" profile
Available across Spain through HoReCa and direct retail

Zumato — clamato-style tomato & lime drink

Tomato & lime · 1 L

Zumato — for Michelada

"The clamato-style drink for a real Michelada — Mexican recipe, made in Spain."

Tomato and lime drink in the style of the Mexican clamato — the savoury base that turns a beer into a Michelada (with lime, salt and hot sauce). The only "clamato-style" drink commercially available in Europe is the American Mott's brand, which has a noticeably different profile from what you drink in a Mexican bar. We make the Mexican version, in Spain.

1 L bottle for bars and home use — also the base of a Mexican Bloody Mary (sometimes called "Vampiro")
Mexican recipe — not the American Mott's profile
Used in bars and Mexican restaurants across Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia
