This seems to require a dece amt of pre planning which seems to be against everything that the margarita stands for.
Also, cilantro-lime rice is fantastic.

also, when is mescal time?
its
tequila + pink lemonade + fresh jalapeno slices + splash of soda water to make fizzy
its also mescal time (i wish I could find some good ones here in mhk)

Do you put Jalapeno in everything you drink?
And something with the word "Cooler" in it doesn't seem like it would have spicy peppers in it.

not everything, just these two specific drinks that feature an alcohol that is indigenous to a region where chiles are a very integral part of the cuisine
it cools you by making you sweat (see other hot places in the world and their cuisine)

There is no good mezcal. Although it is better than sotol. They use the crap to kill rattlesnakes for fucks sake. Big tubs filled with the crap, find a snake and toss it in and boom goes the alcohol poisoning.

gatos montes, you're insane if you don't like good mescal.
of course i knew to use pink lemonade. duh, i'm not a noob. seeds in the jalapeno?
there's a place in kc (westside local) that uses fresh jalapeno in their ginger beer. it's infused when they make the g beer. awesome stuff.

I keep the seeds personally.
you could also switch up the chile, a red fresno would also be pretty tasty.

What is the best tequila for margs?

For the price, Jose Quervo Gold.

I use sauza. I wouldn't go anything higher than Cuervo to be honest.
-
Cuervo is my normal go to but it's for a Christmas party with the fam and mom said to "get good stuff and I will pay you back" expects patron but I assume there is something better for the price since its more or a rapper trendy drink
-
1800 wouldn't be a bad get. I don't know why you'd waste Patron in margaritas. Should probably just drink it neat and use the crappiest silver tequila you can find for the margaritas and tell everyone it's Patron. Literally no one will be able to tell.
-

There really isn't though, you can get Patron silver for $35 at Costco. Don Julio is good but is more expensive. Milagro is decent if you can get it at a good price ($25/750ml).

Anything more fun than taking tequila shots? Nope, i don't think so. Great way to get really drunk really fast, imo.
-
I've been sipping bourbon for the last couple of years and getting kind of getting bored with it. So, a few weeks ago costco had Hornitos reposado on sale and I bought a 1.5L and really enjoyed it. Shots and sipping. Then I bought a liter of Kirkland Anejo. I really like it, and want to explore more good aged tequilas. Whats the best tequila you have ever sipped?
-
i have no idea if they still make it, but it was amazing

Does tequila get better with age? I have an expensive bottle of some crap from 15 years ago. It was great sipping it in Mexico back then, so I grouchy a bottle home. Does it now taste like skunk ass?
Gonna win 'em all!
-
i think you would have to try it and let us know, unless there is a virtual tester....

It doesn't look like they still make it, and I'm sure it was tasty, but I want a 100% blue agave, aged a few years. I have to say, if you're not an experienced tequila sipper, try the kirkland anejo for $20. I know it probably isn't even close to the high end stuff, but it has made me want to explore the tequila world outside of shots and margs.

What is it? I don't know if it gets better in the bottle, but I doubt it gets worse. Open it and tell us what it's like.

Find someone who has actually tasted skunk ass and ask them to take a shot. Then you'll have your answer.

It's only at Costco.
-
so what are you saying, i cant get it because its at costco?
-

Yes, Kirkland brand is exclusive to costco. It's probably a higher end tequila that they re-branded as they say it is made in Jalisco from 100% blue.

I hope the Costco board of directors will let you in. Totally worth the interview, though. Good luck TBT!

Alcohol does not get worse with age. It can be a bottle that was opened 100 years ago and it would still be good.

Can waltz into almost any costco (depending on state laws) and tell them you are only buying booze and they let you in w/o membership.

Alcohol--the chemical compound--does not go bad, but air and time can make liquor taste worse.
-
Ended up not qualifying for a Costco membership.
I ended up getting some Cabo Wabo at the poor people liquor store. Idk if I’ve ever had it or not but first sip is pretty good.
-
Guys, just buy El Jimador and save some $$$
-
Yeah but have u ever tried jose cuervo
-
This thread is pretty embarrassing. I wonder if Stevesie will accept the shame of endorsing Cuervo (Quervo :lol:) Gold
-
The new(er) Kirkland anejo is very good.
Centanario anejo is one of my favorites for the price. Tastes like they finish in cedar barrels. :dunno:

It had been 5 years since I said I was going to try and qualify for a Costco membership. Nobody else had posted anything ITT. As a joke(it’s taken 5 years to see if I qualify for a membership) I said that to continue where the thread left off.
I never go to Costco and only made that comment as a joke. Good grief guys jokes aren’t as funny when you have to explain them. :dubious:
-
costco is one of my top 5 favorite places to go and I basically love everything they sell. its like their buyers read my mind when they work with suppliers
-
Damn, I thought I had this pegged.
-
I used to drive right by a Costco back when I went into the office. I never once shopped there, but I was basically there everyday. It was nice. I recommend Costco based on my limited experience.

Not tequila, but it's related and I didn't feel like creating a new thread. Tonight I am trying out my first mezcal de pechuga (this one distilled with chicken). We'll see how it goes.

WTF! Isn't mezcal basically tequila with the agave worm in the bottle. This is from google:
So tequila is a type of mezcal, but mezcal is not tequila, and only mezcal has worms. According to Anthony Dias Blue's Complete Book of Spirits, that "worm" is actually a larva from one of two types of moths, known as maguey worms, that live on the agave plant.
PS: Drank a lot of tequila and mezcal when I was living in New Mexico.
-
Most mezcals don't have a worm in them, but I believe one of the reasons they were put in there originally was to prove it was the proper proof.
-
Among other things, tequila must be made from a very a specific kind of agave, namely blue agave.
-
Wow it's very different than anything I've ever had before. This one is very cinnamony and a bit sweet.

How was it?
-
The first sip took me aback a bit. I've had quite a few mezcals before, but nothing like this. Sip two and I could appreciate it for what it was and I really dig it. Smooth as all hell.
-
Nice. I’m pretty excited to try the bottle I got.

Del Maguey makes a Pechuga Mezcal. As does Xicaru. Both are available in KS. I have had the Del Maguey one but it was a long time ago. The Xicaru one is fantastic. Xicaru actually adds the chickens to the still.
