With St. Patrick’s Day right around the corner, here are a couple of Hornitos Tequila cocktail recipes that put a Latin twist on the Irish-themed holiday using whiskey barrel-aged Hornitos Black Barrel Tequila.
Raise your glass with Sláinte de la Noche, a cocktail inspired by the popular “Irish Coffee” as well as Teq-Kiwi, a drink as green as the Emerald Isle itself. Not into cocktails?
