1st TEQUILA SHOTS
La Bodega Negra Restaurant, LondonHakuna Tequila! (means no memories for the rest of the night) Woop woop! š®šÆš²š½ @herradurateqā£
ā£
Actually, I will quote this from our tequila master class that "Tequila makes you happy!" š It's an upper but start the night with it rather than finishing. ā£
ā£
We see the tequila as a party shot, but to be classified as tequila you need to tick so many points and Mexian take this very seriously. I was @allaboutanika 's +1 for this event and thanks to her I learned lots! šā£
ā£
š©Location: Tequila can only be produced and bottled in Mexico in special locations. All others are mezcal.ā£
ā£
šµPlant: Need to be made from šBlue Agave succulent which is rich in fructose sugar, which take around 10 years to harvest. (Looks like a pineapple š)ā£
ā£
š«100% : Look for 100% agave tequila printed on the bottle to make sure there is no other sugar is added.ā£
ā£
ā£
Types:ā£
š§Blanco: Most popular, unaged one. ā£
