Each year on September 16th, Mexico celebrates its Independence with plenty of festive parades, parties, food and of course, who could forget the tequila! This year, Milagro Tequila founders Danny and Moy, reflect on what they love most about being from Mexico City. Here’s what they had to say…
“My favorite thing about Mexico City is the passion and authenticity I find in every aspect of the city. It makes me proud to see Mexico City becoming one of the most relevant cities in the world and could not be happier to be a part of that evolution.” – Daniel Schneeweiss
“The people above all, are my favorite thing about Mexico City. The food is amazing!! Mexico City has its own blood type, different to any other city in the world. It is the diversity that is so enriching.” – Moy Guindi
