In order for tequila to be called tequila, it must be made in Jalisco, Mexico, (40 miles northwest of Guadalajara), but we can still celebrate it here in our great nation.
Liquor stores will be opening soon on this fine Sunday afternoon, so take a few minutes and go pick up a bottle. I would recommend Patron silver or Milagro silver. And please, whatever you do, DO NOT put lick salt off of your hand and suck on a lime wedge with it. Sip the tequila, instead of shooting it. And if you really want to drink tequila like they do in Mexico, make some sangrita and sip it along with your tequila.
Here is my favorite sangrita recipe:
2 cups tomato juice
1 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lime juice
Worcestershire sauce (to taste)
Hot sauce (to taste)
Salt and pepper.
Just mix it up, chill it and enjoy it with your tequila.
