Hello. Do you like bad alcohol? Wait. Don’t answer that question. Let me rephrase…
Do you like being deceived and waking up in a fair amount of unplanned unnecessary pain? Have you grown a bizarre but not unreasonable grudge against the alcoholic beverage known as tequila? Well, I’m here to tell you: it’s okay. We have found the diagnosis. You’ve been MIXED.
Now, if you try to Google the word “mixed” you will find a number of definitions…
Definition 1: Consisting of different qualities or elements.
Definition 2: Containing a mixture of both favorable and negative elements.
Definition 3: Composed of different varieties of the same thing.
And the list goes on, covering a variety of sociological contexts. But what does it mean to get “mixed.” Well, if we circle back to your situationship with the alcoholic beverage commonly known as tequila… There’s a chance you’ve been drinking Mixto Tequilla. Yes, you heard me: MIXTO. And what exactly is inside a Mixto concoction? Who knows! I mean of course, the bottle’s gonna say “real” tequila. But what technically qualifies as a “real” version of a beverage? According to distilleries, you only need more than 50% of the actual described beverage to call it the beverage.
Now, tequila comes from the agave plant, and because there only needs to be more than half of the agave spirit in the bottle, companies can do whatever they want to the other 49%! Now now, we shouldn’t blame them for this… mixing drinks for a brand is an art in itself, and sometimes you want some dye in there to get a specific color, or you need a dash of molasses to impact the thickness… Sometimes you have a tight budget and tequila is tequila as tomato is tomato…
But that shouldn’t come at the cost of a horrifying hangover that makes one abandon the beverage entirely. The issue isn’t the tequila itself… You just got mixed! And how do you keep yourself from getting mixed? It’s simple. You just need to purchase some 100% Agave tequila. No thickeners, no dyes, no weird sugars, 100%. You know your body can’t handle the mix-up, so try out something straight from the source:
Agive yourself the agifte of 100% agave, and experience tequila at its purest.
