Tequila is a blue-green liquid made from agave cactus, or caché, that has been transformed into many different products, including soap, syrup, and beverage mix.
The agave comes from either the Agave plant or Caché plant. The Agave has six main compounds: Acetoacetyl Agaveno (Aga-VA-noh-TEH), pterochaetin (PYRE-oh-chaET-in), acetaniline (Acetanilexol), amphetamine (part of tequila familiarly called methylenedioxymethamphetamine or MDMA), and three other chemicals that aren’t important to drinking but are important to the manufacturing process.
The Caché can be raw or processed into many different things. It can be boiled down to alcohol or it can be processed into sugarcane milk substitute, baking powder, and sour cream substitute. It can also be distilled into various beverages such as whiskey, vodka, and lemonade.

Lemon
When asked what flavor tequila is, Elite members typically mention lemon as the main ingredient. While most people agree that it tastes good, there is a cost to using it in your cocktails.
Tequila is very fresh, so mixing it with another drink makes it more difficult to determine if you have enough. If you have a lot of flavor, then you have too much lemon!
However, this effect is lessened when mixed with water or other beverages. When tasted alone, it has a very slight bitterness that goes away quickly. Some people enjoy it that way, while others do not find enough bitterness necessary.
The texture of the lemon can also cause problems when making cocktails. If you need to use a certain amount of substance in your drinks, then this must be taken into account. Using too little or no lemon can cause this to become flat or lacklustre.
Orange
What if Tequila wasn’t a drink, but a flavor? What if there was a different tequila to try, a flavor version that was more like orange juice?
It would be called orange parole. The color is similar to the taste, and when mixed with spice and vanilla, it creates an interesting flavor.
If you didn’t try it yet, I recommend Tequila- its quality is high enough that you should not miss anything. It is perfect for a relaxing drink or night out.
There are several brand names of tequila, most of which have some kind of alcohol content. They are usually triple-distilled instead of made from three different sources. Triple-distilling means that the grains are combined into one liquid stream.
This process takes longer, costs more money, and requires more complicated equipment.
Sugar
This is a hard one to bullet point. There are so many flavors that taste like sugar that it is hard to determine which flavor goes with any beverage.
Tequila has a long history of being mixed into cocktails, so most bars will have a few examples of what the Tequila goes with. A classic example is the margarita, which is made with Tequila and tomato base wine or juice.
Another popular choice is fresh fruit mixed with Tequila and sweetener. These are known as trendy drinks such as tequila sunrise or tequilasicle drinks.
Finally, there are some Savories that require nothing but pure Tequila to go along with them. These include Mexican food items such as margaritas and Mexican sodas like Margarita or Fresh Fruit of the Day-y style.
Chamoy
A taste of the Orient is originated from Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Chai is a departure from most cocktail recipes, as it is a traditional tea drink.
However, because of the cinnamon content in both tea and cinnamon, it works as a flavor addition. Cassis or kaffir lime leafs are another flavor addition for chai, making this a versatile drink.
Cassis are Valencia orange segments that have been dehydrated and treated with spices and sold as cassia tea. Kaffeir are dried green coffee beans that have been treated with caffeine.
Kaffeir are typically paired with more robust drinks like espresso or coffee-based cocktails. Tequila has become a popular alternative to alcohol because it does not provide enough relief from pain and pressure in most circumstances.
Traditionally, people would take their chaser with them to the bathroom to freshen up before bed so that they do not get sick from the alcohol.
Hot sauce
was originally a dog, but he was too hot-headed so his owners got him some tequila. He has a habit of gulpING the tequila and trying to run around with us.
Theres a chance he will get carried away and try to drink it all, especially if you give him a taste. Theres also a chance he will like the flavor and make himself an extra one to share with you.
He is very cute when he does this because his head comes up and he looks surprised. It is also fun to watch him try it out- its cute!
Bullet has helped us learn some things about ourselves though, like how we react to things. We learned that we are not always able to control our dogs, and they can have very odd reactions to things.
I would recommend being aware of this when giving dogs alcohol, or any type of drug.
Sour cream
This is a tough one! There are so many flavorings and flavor combinations that are mixed-atura! Sour cream is one of the most popular flavors to combine with tequila.
Some examples of sour cream combinations include: mixed with lime juice and vodka, poured over vanilla ice cream and consumed as a treat, or mixed with chocolate syrup and enjoyed as a cookie.
As we mentioned, some combinations are for fun only. For instance, one favorite combination is mixed with chocolate, coffee, and tea bags. The person enjoying the mixture can say what flavor they want added!
Typically, these flavors do not match well with tequila due to being bitter or strong.
Jalapeños
When tequila is not in season, it is fun to mix jalapeños with eggs and cheese. When you mix the two, your egg and cheese mixture creates a spicy, creamy base for the jalapeño. This couple loves their tequila!
The same goes for jalapeños and ceviche. These two friends enjoy their tequila together, so why not combine the two?
Another fun way to use the jalapeño is as a topping for chicken or fish tacos. These guys love their tequila, so why not have a little bit of it on top of their food?
These guys are all about using high-quality materials when making products, so they used a $3 bottle of agave-based mixer as their source material.
Tomatoes
inelli, or fresh tomatoes are a summer staple. They make for a delicious summer treat! Try matching them with some grilled chicken or veggie skewers.
As opposed to some vegetables, tomatoes are in season from May through July. This may make it harder to find what side dishes or snacks you wanted when chef denise asked for them.
However, there are still ways to ensure you get your tomato order! Denise likes cherry tomatoes, so if you find ones that are slightly soft and juicy, those would be a good choice.
If hard and dry looking like stone, then something with less sodium and/or fat would be good as they can sometimes cause digestive problems with food processing.
