Global Mixologist for Tequila Don Julio®

So you are planning your first big summer bash – you have scrubbed down the grill, stocked up on ribs, mixed up your grandfather's secret BBQ sauce and now you face the really tough question: What do you serve to drink? Entertaining friends has become a serious business - setting out the salt shaker, limes, tequila and margarita mix just does not
cut it anymore. Your friends may want fresh, flavor and quality. And you want to share a unique experience that they will be talking about for years to come.

Enter the DON JULIO LUXURY DROP. It is a delicious and exciting new way to drink tequila. For years, industry insiders have known that Tequila Don Julio® is one of the best tequilas on the market. Its distinctly unique flavor profile is prized among bartenders for making world class cocktails that don't have the bitter finish that is typically associated with many tequilas. True tequila connoisseurs drink it neat without salt or limes. The finish is so smooth that real tequila lovers want to savor the flavor like a Scotch Whiskey. People tend to associate tequila with the margarita. The Don Julio Luxury Drop is the best of both worlds; it tastes as great as a fresh margarita and it is just as fun to do as a shot of tequila. The recipes are easy to make (involving four ingredients or less) and each Drop is just as fun to drink as a shot of tequila with salt and lime. The Agave Drop, for example, has a refreshing taste and can be made into a cocktail if you prefer. So this summer keep an eye out for a Don Julio Luxury Drop. Try out the Agave Drop and even if you burn the ribs, your guests will toast your hospitality with another Luxury Drop.
