Flavored tequila might seem a superfluous notion, like gilding a lily or bronzing an orchid. But if you don’t have the time to pour and shake, there’s Dulce Vida. (They’ve got a lime version in addition to the grapefruit.) They infuse with real flavors, so you definitely get your Paloma on as soon as you open the bottle. Just pour over ice, and add club soda depending on how many you will consume.

It’s pure blue agave for the tequila base, too, so you do feel the alcohol heat, even with the drink weighing in at a judicious 70 proof. And sure, there’s a bit more sweetness than purists will prefer, but it’s advertised as “low cal/low carb,” and that sell should tell you everything.
