It’s Friday July 24th, and that means it’s National Tequila Day. Time to enjoy refreshing tequila cocktails!

Camarena has a smooth yet diverse portfolio of tequilas, all harvested by hand from 100% blue weber agave in the Jalisco’s Arandas Highlands and then distilled through a proprietary method that blends traditional ovens and modern techniques. This makes the award-winning portfolio of Silver, Reposado, and Anejo some of the smoothest tequilas on the market and a great option to enjoy in any celebration, especially today.

Whether celebrating at home with just a few friends or virtually with the crew, Camarena Tequila’s ever so smooth portfolio, combined with these delicious cocktail recipes, will be sure to impress any tequila enthusiast!
