FAQ's
We've collated some quick fire Q&A's on the question to help you find exactly what you're looking for.

What cocktails can I make with silver tequila?
Silver tequila is great for cocktails like Margaritas, Tequila Collins, and Palomas. Its clear, crisp flavor pairs well with citrus and lightly sweet ingredients, making it versatile for many recipes.

What is the difference between silver and aged tequilas?
Silver, or blanco tequila, is unaged and has a stronger, more straightforward agave flavor. Aged tequilas, like reposado and añejo, have been aged in barrels, giving them a smoother, more complex profile with hints of oak and vanilla.

How do I make simple syrup for cocktails?
To make simple syrup, combine equal parts water and sugar in a pot. Heat over medium, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Let it cool before using. Simple syrup can be stored in the fridge for up to a month.

Can I substitute agave syrup for simple syrup in cocktails?
Yes, agave syrup can be used as a substitute for simple syrup in cocktails. It has a milder sweetness and a slightly different flavor profile that pairs well with tequila-based drinks.

What foods pair well with tequila cocktails?
Tequila cocktails pair well with spicy and flavorful foods, such as Mexican cuisine. Tacos, guacamole, and spicy salsa can complement the bright and citrusy notes of tequila cocktails, enhancing the overall dining experience.
