Tequila Sour

El Tequila Sour es un cóctel refrescante que combina la suavidad del tequila con la acidez del jugo de limón y la dulzura del jarabe simple. Se agita con hielo y se sirve en un vaso corto, a menudo adornado con una rodaja de limón o una cereza. Su equilibrio entre sabores cítricos y el característico toque del tequila lo convierte en una opción ideal para cualquier ocasión.

History & Origins

The Tequila Sour is a direct ancestor of the world-famous Margarita, representing the sophisticated tequila cocktail movement that began in 1930s Mexico. By combining tequila with citrus and sweetness in sour form, Mexican bartenders created a template that would define modern tequila cocktails. This drink preserves the authentic tequila-forward approach that many classic recipes depend upon.
