In 2023, Maestro Dobel was dubbed the first official tequila of the U.S. Open and the featured Maestro Dobel Ace Paloma cocktail was served at a branded, full-service bar inside Arthur Ashe Stadium. To coincide with the start of the 2024 U.S. Open, Cocktail Courier dropped a convenient way for fans of tequila, palomas and tennis to enjoy the same signature cocktail with Maestro Dobel Tequila’s Ace Paloma Cocktail Kit.
This make-at-home kit pairs Maestro Dobel Diamante Cristalino Tequila with two Owen's Rio Red Grapefruit cans, fresh limes, and cocktail glasses, plus a Maestro Dobel tennis ball and golf ball.
To garnish, the branded kit contains dehydrated grapefruit slice garnishes and black salt for a deliciously different take on the famous grapefruit cocktail.
