Gone are the days where tequila is strictly bottom shelf and only used at frat parties for a quick buzz. Taking a shot of tequila is like saying to yourself, “Sure, why not? I like surprises!”

In your twenties and thirties it is perfectly normal to live your life on the edge, with some salt and a lemon wedge… Yup, not only did I make that up, but also, I’m slightly proud.

When you are sick…Tequila is the prescription.

When you want to lose weight…Try the Tequila diet, you will throw up everything.

When you want to tell someone how you feel…Tequila is the ultimate truth serum.

Although you may see life a little bit blurrier after throwing back a few, you will realize. “Ya know what? Water doesn’t solve my problems either!”

So cheers! Drink up. Pour yourself a tall glass, mi hombre and let’s start this fiesta.

July 24th marks National Tequila Day allowing us to finally have an excuse for a post-work margarita.
