Tequila lovers we are! Now we are not purists so we do appreciate a mellow sipping tequila from time to time.
A few years back we were in Puerto Vallarta for our anniversary and our friends Alex and Debbie introduced us to Agavero on our last night in town. We loved it so much that the next morning we began our mad hunt to find some before we had to catch our flight back home.
The problem was, it was Sunday morning and all the shop owners were in church! Sadly we made our way to the airport vowing to find it when we got home. Sadness turned to giddy excitement for me (husbands don’t get giddy) when I spotted it at the airport. Well, as you can imagine, we picked up several bottles just to be safe!
We enjoy sipping Agavero but it is also wonderful in this twist on a Cosmopolitan.
Agavero comes in a beautiful bottle with spiky agave leaves that wind up the bottle. The label says “El Original Licor de Tequila” and is 100 percent blue agave tequila infused with the natural essence of the Damiana flower.
