International Tequila Day
July 24 · Level 7 · #731 of 2238
This is a day to raise a glass to Mexico's famous agave spirit. Tequila fans and bars around the world join in.
How it is celebrated: bartenders shake up Margaritas and Palomas, hold tastings and explain the difference between blanco, reposado and añejo. Connoisseurs say a good tequila is meant for slow sipping, much like a fine brandy.
The agave landscape and the old tequila distilleries of Jalisco in Mexico have been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2006.
