Product Information

I garnished generously with citrus and mint, but that was more for the striking colour contrasts, rather than for flavour. I wanted to add as little as possible that could interfere with the natural flavours of the tequila. I never follow anything by the book. I live to improvise. I decided on a novel handled beer-mug, instead of the traditional highball glass. I also rimmed my glass with Himalayan pink salt, because I do think the salt enhances a lot of the natural flavours of the tequila. I also used the best quality, freshly squeezed orange juice I could find. I added a touch of grenadine at the end.

The Sierra Silver Tequila is just as smooth, but more elegantly understated than the golden Reposado. It’s milder; more delicate, but perfectly balanced when mixed with the slight acidity of the lime juice. Where Reposado is moody and alluring, Silver Tequila is fresh, light and reminds you of ripe pineapples with a cheeky chilli afterthought. It’s very obvious why it’s Europe’s favourite.
