The start of Hispanic Heritage Month means a time for fun and drinks. Make the most of  the celebrations with the cocktail recipes below.

With more than a century of Mexican craft, heritage, and family tradition,  Centenario Tequila is made from 100% blue agave grown in the highlands of Jalisco, slow-cooked in traditional masonry ovens and finished with our proprietary Selección Suave process for a smooth, refined liquid. A staple at celebrations across generations, Centenario Tequila has been there for the traditions, toasts, and little moments that keep us connected to our roots.
