tequila love... it takes your breath away

i love random facts. i stumble upon them in the strangest of places and then file them away in the ever expanding "random facts" pocket of my noodle.
the latest of random facts came to me this past weekend at a post-outsidelands party hosted by patron.

needless to say, i was in tequila heaven and made sure i did my research on the newest funnest ways to mix up tequila based bevvies.

while in line for the restroom i started chattin' with two girls and out of the blue one girl goes, "do you know why tequila gives you that body shudder when you take a shot?" and in unison the other girl and i say, "no, why???"

well... it turns out that tequila and oxygen don't really like each other, so whether you're shooting or sipping your tequila, you're supposed to take a deep breath and then exxxxxxxxxxhale out all the air to allow the true essence of its deliciousness to take over your tastebuds.

so... there, while in line for the bathroom, we put her fact to the test and YES, there is a big difference. Tequila's sweeter, woodsy, silkier sides shows and leaves you smiling, with no body shudders and no need to have a lime chaser. good to know, right?

and... for my fellow tequila lover's, DO be sure to check out patron's XO cafe. it's their coffee liqueur made from tequila and it is deeeeeeeeeeeelicious. rest assured it won't take the place of my morning latte, but it will most definitely be mixed into my cocktail arsenal!

breath out and enjoy.
