Unfortunately, most of our compatriots have no idea about the culture of drinking alcoholic beverages. In particular, we are talking about the famous "Mexican vodka", tequila, which in practice is not vodka at all, and therefore you cannot drink tequila in the same way as the famous "bitter".

What if we diversify the menu a bit?

To the question of what they drink tequila with, we most often hear the standard answer: with lime (lemon) and s alt. However, let's leave the classics for a while and think about the fact that you can fully reveal the whole range of taste sensations of tequila only if you experiment with possible drinks and snacks.

Actually, a wide variety of dishes and foods can serve as an appetizer, and preparing something suitable for the occasion is not difficult, even if your culinary knowledge is limited to the perfectly honed ability to put a kettle on.

So what do they drink tequila with? Excellent options would be seafood: shrimp fried with garlic, pita bread (it should first be deep-fried), mussels with onions or, for example, a sort of mini-sandwich, which includes boiled shrimp on chips incombined with a slice of kiwi.

Some people drink Mexican vodka with a hot hearty meal. However, experts strongly oppose the use of tequila with meals. It is customary to serve it either before a meal or after it.

Ideally, tequila should be washed down with sangrita - a non-alcoholic mixture that includes tomato and orange juices, as well as hot peppers.

In speci alty restaurants, tequila is served with shrimp in a tequila-based sauce, lime juice with rice and vegetables, goat cheese ravioli, hot peppers and herbs, chicken breast with spicy sauce and, again, goat cheese.

In its pure form, tequila is easy to drink, but sometimes you just want to try something new! You can do this by preparing delicious tequila cocktails.

A cocktail called "Tequila with martini" is very popular. In a glass with ice, mix 40 ml of tequila and 20 ml of vermouth (dry). An olive can be dipped into the finished drink.

A drink called "Pacific Ocean" is also very popular. His recipe is a little more complicated: for 40 ml of tequila, 10 ml of lemon juice and 20 ml of passion fruit juice are taken. After that, they start mixing, after adding a bar scoop of ice to the resulting composition.

Another option with which to drink tequila is to make a cocktail called "Mexican Dream". To do this, you will need 20 ml of tequila, about the same amount of brandy and lemon juice, as well asa spoonful of Grenadine (pomegranate) syrup. The ingredients are mixed in a shaker, strained into a cocktail glass and sprinkled with a piece of lemon zest.

And, finally, another option - a cocktail with the eloquent name "Tornado". In a shaker, shake 30 ml of tequila, 40 each of passion fruit and grapefruit juice, 20 ml of peach liqueur and half the lime syrup.

As you can see, there are a lot of options for drinking tequila, and it all depends solely on your taste preferences.
