For the jalapeño simple syrup:

Remove mixture from heat and let cool completely. Remove jalapeños from simple syrup. Note: Simple syrup can be kept in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
For the spicy Paloma:
In a small dish combine salt, paprika, and Aleppo pepper. Run a lime wedge along the rim of glass and dip into salt mixture, then fill glass with ice.
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine grapefruit juice, lime juice, jalapeño simple syrup, and tequila. Shake, then strain into glass and top with soda water.
Garnish cocktail with a slice of grapefruit and a few jalapeño rounds.
