Celebration

Let’s toast to tequila’s unique ability to turn a regular conversation into a deep, philosophical debate about the meaning of life.
History
In the late 1800s, tequila almost met its bitter demise. A pesky disease known as “TMA” came knocking on the blue agave plant’s door, threatening to wipe out the sole ingredient in tequila production. Can you imagine a world without the beloved spirit we know and love? It was a tequila catastrophe waiting to happen! Thankfully, the resilient blue agave plants rallied and fought off the disease, saving us from a tequila apocalypse. Cheers to the tequila survivors and the enduring spirit of the blue agave plant.
But What About The Worm…?
“Ah, the infamous tequila worm, the little creature that has sparked countless debates and conspiracy theories. Is it a marketing ploy? Absolutely! But hey, who can blame the tequila industry for trying to keep things interesting? It’s like the little secret ingredient that adds a touch of mystique to the drink. It’s the ultimate dare for those brave enough to take on the challenge. This truly isn’t a traditional practice, but actually the larva of a moth that lives on the agave plant. You can forget all the horror stories you’ve heard about the worm being a parasitic demon from the depths of tequila hell. It’s just a clever marketing ploy to make us think twice before taking that daring sip. Cheers to the tequila worm, the marketing genius behind the spirit we love!
Safety
Remember when you’re bar hopping tonight to always mix your tequila with a splash of safety – water, lime, or even a dash of common sense. Tequila shouldn’t be your only friend on this day.
