And it all starts with a bottle of 1800 Tequila.
Okay, let’s do some word association. Tequila. Did you say Margarita? Well, of course you did. We're here to remind you that there’s more to tequila than the Marg (which you know we love and adore). As some of tequila’s biggest fans, we know there’s no shortage of agave-based drinks, and if you love the simplicity of making a Margarita, then you’re going to love adding the Paloma, Batanga and the Margarita Soda (because you didn't expect us to ditch the Marg completely, did you?) into your rotation. All you need is your very versatile bottle of 1800 Blanco, a handful of ingredients and a few mates.
When it comes to making dead simple (but delicious) cocktails, there are fewer ingredients at play, which means you need a bloody good base spirit – in our case it’s tequila. The team behind 1800 Tequila has over 250 years in the game, which is why we reckon 1800 Blanco is the MVP for this cocktail lineup. It’s premium enough that you’ll certainly enjoy it as a sipper on its own, but adaptable enough to shine in all sorts of mixed drinks. And if you want to talk about championships and trophies, 1800 Tequila is also the world’s most awarded tequila and recently took out world’s best tequila.
Here at Dan’s Daily, we go all in (or all out) for a barbecue. We’re talking snags (with onion, because is there really another way?), steaks, burgers, yes, there’s a halloumi option, and don’t forget the prawns. But the real heroes of a barbecue are the trimmings like pasta salad, coleslaw, potato salad – maybe scalloped potatoes if the weather is getting cooler – and some chargrilled corn on the cob. The Paloma not only looks great, but its sweet and sour will also cut through that smoky barbecue flavour.
If you love the Paloma, grab your 1800 Reposado tequila and kick things up a notch with our Blood Orange version.
