History of National Tequila Day

Pulque, a milky, foamy agave beverage that was popular among native Mexican tribes during the Mesoamerican period around 1000 B.C., is considered to be the ancestor of tequila.

The modern tequila we know and love, however, would not be created until the 16th century A.D., in and around a region that would not be given the name Tequila until 1666.

In Jalisco, the Mexican state where the present city of Tequila is located, Spanish nobility Don Pedro Sánchez de Tagle opened the first tequila production in the world 66 years earlier.

It most certainly wouldn't have prevented Don Jose Antonio de Cuervo from establishing the first Vino Mezcal de Tequila de Jose Cuervo in Tequila more than a century later, in 1795, and giving rise to the world's most popular tequila brand to this day.

Tequila's beginnings are reasonably well known, but sadly, the beginnings of National Tequila Day are a little less clear. There isn't much information available on the holiday's origins, what it was, or why it occurs on the dates it does. It's possible that the creators consumed too much of their own supply to remember.

Nevertheless, popular belief dictates that National Tequila Day in the United States happens on July 24th, while the Mexican Senate just decided that their own takes place on the third Saturday of every March.

Celebrate National Tequila Day With a Cocktail

If you don’t know what to make with Tequila, try making “Spicy Paloma.”  Your entire being will be warmed by a Spicy Paloma cocktail.

You won't be able to tell if the heat you feel is coming from the tequila Blanco or the capsaicin, thanks to a hearty kick in the face from a brown sugar jalapeno simple syrup. This cocktail will always be your go-to beverage during the summer.

You'll need Tequila Blanco, grapefruit soda, grapefruit juice, lime juice, brown sugar, water, and jalapenos to make a Spicy Paloma. You need kosher salt for the rim of your cocktail glass.

Even though this is a Spicy Paloma recipe, you can omit the jalapeno if you're not a heat fan. Similarly, you can make this a mocktail by leaving out the tequila and replacing it with additional grapefruit soda.
