May your Cinco de Mayo be filled with friends, freshness, more friends and tasty Tequila! I’ll be having some combination of the above ingredients in my Tequila cocktail today. What about you?
Salud!
Where to even begin with this post? Where? Casa Noble Crystal Blanco Tequila + Sangrita + Corona Extra, are you kidding me? YAASSSSSS PLEASE.
I’m really pumped to be a part of The Casa Noble Ritual because it is 1. now officially #TequilaSeason, 2. I am so happy to be talking about how Mexicans drink Tequila, 3. it’s not very often that I talk about beer, let alone a Mexican beer, 4. Cinco de Mayo!
Hello lil bottle of Casa Noble Crystal, you are so very tasty.
A great ritual must begin somewhere and in this case it begins with Casa Noble Crystal Blanco Tequila. If you’ve been reading my blog for a few months you know how fond I am of this particular Tequila. I think it’s truly one of a kind with tasting notes such as:
Totally into it, totally ready to sip it all day on Cinco de Mayo.
You may be asking the question, “What is this Sangrita business and where are the salt and lime wedges for my Tequila?” Well, that’s a great question! Often in Mexico when people drink Tequila, they don’t take it in chilled shots with salt and lime like we do in the USA, they either sip it alone at room temperature or they have it along with a glass of Sangrita.
So what is Sangrita? It’s the best chaser in the history of chasers if you ask me.
Stacks of Citrus, Tomato Juice and Jalapeño.
Don’t forget Cholula (or other Mexican Hot Sauce), Salt & Pepper.
Sangrita
Combine ingredients in large jar (32 oz or more) and stirrrrrrrr until everything has combined nicely. Let the Jalapeño sit in the jar for 1-2 hours (depending on how spicy you like it), then remove Jalapeño. Refrigerate. Sip with Tequila or use in place of Bloody Mary Mix for a totally killer Bloody Maria!
Hello delicious, golden, wheaty Corona Extra. You’re just perfect for this tasty Ritual.
Now that we’ve talked about the ingredients, what is The Casa Noble Ritual? Simply and in this order:
The sip sizes are up to you but try not to get too tipsy on the first round, you’re going to want to repeat these steps many, many times. 🙂
Totally, totally fabulous right? It’s literally the best liquid flavor pairing I’ve tasted and here’s why:
FYI, I’ve been enjoying the Casa Noble Ritual the entire time I’ve been writing this post.
The Casa Noble Ritual is an excellent way for any group of friends to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Salud!
Thanks to the Baddish Group for including me in this excellent tradition!
