Sangrita!

If you like 100% Agave Tequila

especially silver/blanco (by the way we carry about 60 different styles in the store) try it the way the natives drink it in Mexico with a side of Sangrita!  Too lazy to make it from scratch we sell a pre mixed Sangrita in the store!!!!

4-6 drops Tabasco Sauce

Serves about 8

1 cup tomato juice
Juice of 3 limes
Juice of 2-3 oranges
Minced fresh green chiles
   (serranos or jalapeños) or hot salsa to taste
Salt to taste

Mix the ingredients in a blender or pitcher. Because the intensity of fresh juices and chiles vary, mix most of the ingredients, then taste and adjust accordingly. Chill well. Serve in shot glasses accompanied by shot glasses of tequila for sipping alternately. Best served with a good quality tequila.

 

Sangrita with Grenadine

Serves about 4

1 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon grenadine syrup
hot sauce or a few squirts of Tabasco to taste
Salt to taste
Squirt of lime juice (from about 1/4 to 1/2 small lime)

 

Mix the ingredients completely, preferably in a blender, and serve well chilled. Serve in shot glasses accompanied by shot glasses of tequila for sipping alternately. Best served with a good quality tequila.

 

 

Better than Grand Marnier or Cointreau at half the price!

 

Who says Imported GranGala tastes better? Experts.  In a margarita taste test, Imported GranGala Triple Orange Liqueur scored highest, rated #1 with 94 Points, better than Grand Marnier® rated #3, with only 86 points. Conducted by the Beverage Testing Institute, Imported GranGala was also judged #1 for orange flavor and smoothness.*

Imported GranGala’s deep rich orange flavor is the result of artful blending of VSOP Brandy with triple orange essence from the choicest oranges from Sicily.Long a favorite of bartenders and mixologists, Imported GranGala is also a favorite of many Chefs to bring new excitement to their cuisine.
