Cocktails

Tequila is a fine and complex liquor and as such it must be sipped slowly. It should be served at room temperature, although some like it ice cold. Traditionally most people serve it in a "caballito", a 2oz glass made exclusively for this purpose.

Blanco and Reposado may be accompanied by "sangrita" made of tomato and orange juice with salt and chile. Añejo is preferably served in a snifter so that the aroma is fully appreciated. The tequila shot with lime and salt is Hollywood stuff and few people drink it that way.

 However, some people do put some lime juice in the tequila or bite the lime before sipping it. Life is, after all, a matter of taste. Choose the right tequila for your cocktail and enjoy it.
