Tequila is a clear purple liquor made from blue agave plants grown in tequila production. While it is not always written as such, most variations of tequila are equal parts blanco (un mixed) and puro (purple) or Anejo (old).
The agave plant is a native to Mexico, where it has been used for centuries to create drinks like mezcal and sabasetza. In modern times, mezcal is popular due to its neutral flavor and easy accessibility.
Sabasetza is an ancient Mexican drink that was once made with milk, but now is just made with watery white wine or lager. The agave used must be carefully monitored in this case, as it can turn white if not poured into the right vessel.
Tequila comes in several grades, which correspond to how much salt was added during production. These include reposado (with no salt), suposo (add-on of salt), and guacapé (added-over).

Salt
A tequila that is made from grains instead of juice is called saltelta. It is created by mixing salt with the juice that comes from the packaging of some beers, but not all.
Tequila can be mixed with many things, so it is not a one-barrel-product-only drink. You can find saltelta with top-quality tequila, so it is a fun mix to enjoy.
Some people feel that saltelta makes your mouth feel and taste a little bit salty, which may be missed out on by someone if they were not drinking something else in addition to it.
Sour mix
A mixture of flavors or tastes such as sweet and sour. The term can also refer to a mix of drinks like beer mixed with Mexican tequila.
TEQUILA is a flavorful powder that can add some flair to any drink. It is a potent drug and should be used in small doses.
Orange juice
A pomegranate juice is one of the most perfect matchings for tequila. This exotic flavor contrast makes for an amazing experience when combined with the tequila’s sweet and sour taste.
The term orange juice has many different names. Some of those names include orange, orange soda, and fruit juice. The key part about orange juice is that it contains a reasonable percentage of pomegranate.
This natural fiber in the juice helps to create some nice texture in your cocktail. When combined with the Tequila’s sweet and sour taste, this texture creates a beautiful contrast.
The simplest way to try this flavor contrast is by using 2 teaspoons of pomegranate juice and 1 teaspoon of fruit juice.
Sugar syrup
When ready to drink, we recommend having some kind of syrup on hand to complement your tequila. Tequila can be a little dry and a lot sweet, making it hard to determine what flavor profile you are looking for.
Some variations of tequila are sweeter than others, making it a different kind of partner than syrup. A variation that is recommended for brunch is vanilla syrup combined with an agave nectar or sorbitol mix. An aging agent such as cocoa butter or pure almond oil can be used to preserve the tequila and add some flavor.
Brunch guests often ask about which brunch items are best with which kinds of food.
Lemon juice
When served alongside a tequila, lemons can be enjoyed in several ways. First, they can be chopped and added as a topping for drinks. Next, they can be sliced and added as a seasoning to dishes.
Lemons are full of vitamin C, which makes it helpful for some health conditions. When paired with alcohol, the vitamin C increases its effectiveness.
This is an important part of the recipe because if you don’t have enough vitamin C, then you won’t get the same kick from the liquor and lemon is an excellent source of vitamin C.
Sliced lemons can also be put into a bath or bubble bath to add some extra scent.
Water
Tequila is a blue-shifted white liquor similar to vodka, but with less water content. This makes it stand out as a refreshment drink instead of a beverage you take along on a trip due to the watered-down nature.
While most people do not bat an eye at the fact that tequila is watered-down, many people are not familiar with its variations. There are several brands that contain higher percentages of alcohol and are marketed as stronger beverages. Many people find this attractive as it adds more fun characteristics to cocktails, such
s grandpa’s whiskey or old school tequilas like Don Q. Changing the percentage of alcohol in a cocktail does not affect the quality of the cocktail; it only changes how much someone takes home because it was more than when they purchased it!
While not everyone should drink or create cocktails based on what percentage of alcohol there is, everyone can enjoy a variation in their cocktail without being too heavy or distorting the flavor of the other ingredients.
Frozen fruit juice concentrate
Tequila has a long history of use. From modern day stories of tequila use, there are many ways to enjoy this versatile drink.
In the early stages, Tequila was paired with beer or ale drinks. As time went on, more and more cocktails were created with Tequila. These cocktails have evolved, but the main ingredients are still Tequila or a similar substance.
A classic tequila drink is a frozen fruit or dairy product concentrate beverage. This can be used in many ways- as a post-workout drink, mixed into water or tea, or made with vodka and Mexican Alesetzure powder.
As seen with the addition of ice and variation in flavor and texture of the drink, it is easy to create different tequilas goes good with different things.
Fruit garnish
When looking for a tequila to go with fruit, the first consideration is what fruit it is. Most fruits are good with tequila, but certain fruits may result in unpleasant or high-pitched flavors.
The most common fruit partners are grapes and apples, both of which show up in mixed drinks as well as their own right out of the box. Apples show up as apple cider or apple juice, while grapes can be grapefruit or guanaba-based.
While neither one of these shows up in large amounts by itself, together they create interesting combinations. For example, graham-flavored products show up frequently as partners with alcohol, due to its soft yet flavorful texture.
As a general rule, do not pair very salty snacks or dishes with alcohol due to risk of thirstiness.
