I was really bummed to not have been able to get this video out for National Tequila Day, I try hard to get out videos for all the good national drinking holidays but alas I failed. That said, a lot of people have been asking me about how to use Tequila and so I thought a video on five great Tequila drinks was in order. As always I tried to vary the drinks to give the makers a good rounded tequila experience but since it is still summer and pretty hot, decided on some shaken cocktails, maybe volume 2 will be stirred drinks. I also made sure that all the drinks could be made with four tools: Shaker set, jigger, hawthorn strainer and fine strainer. Alright guys! Go get it!
