Stanley Tucci Issues Apology to Tequila Lovers for His Creation of ‘Ginloma’

On Instagram,Stanley Tucci, 62, recently shared a cocktail tutorial video with his followers, where he created his version of theclassic drink, the Paloma. However, the recipe was largely met with angry comments and backlash bytequila enthusiasts. And as a result, the actor and filmmaker made a fun apology video.

Earlier this month,The Devil Wears Pradaalum shared his personal Paloma recipe with the world. In the video (see below), Tucci starts with a cup of gin (yes, that’s right), grapefruit juice, lime juice and agave.

Then, he puts all of the ingredients in a shaker. Once he’s done, the actor pours himself a glass and enjoys the cocktail outside.

So, why all the fuss? You see, many tequila lovers felt that theCitadelstar showed disrespect towards the Paloma’s (normally) main ingredient, tequila.

For instance, one person wrote in the comments section of the video, “Tequila Stanley! Not gin.” Another wrote in all caps, “GIN?!”
