Cinco de Mayo 2020 will be a bit different than years past, but keep celebrating with Zoom happy hours, Houseparty chats and 1800 Tequila cocktails!
Our classic 1800 Silver is made from 100% Weber blue agave – aged for 8 – 12 years and harvested at their peak. The liquid is double distilled, and a special selection of white tequilas is blended together for added complexity and character. A great tequila at a great price, 1800 Tequila is available on both ReserveBar.com and Drizly.com for approx $34.00.
See below for five easy-to-make, at-home cocktail recipes that everyone on your virtual happy hour will be jealous of – including a classic margarita. Plus, the bottle looks great on any bar cart (or on video) since the bottle’s triangular shape is reminiscent of the Mayan pyramids found in Mexico.
Cheers!
