Best 1800 Tequila Mixed Drinks
1800 Tequila is a premium yet accessible tequila and is excellent from mixed drinks, it works well in a classic margarita or for a few cocktails on cinco de mayo. Whether you choose Reposado that is tequila aged in french oak barrels or the premium silver blanco tequila. These are four classic cocktail recipes using both white tequilas and reposado.
1800 Tequila Cocktail Recipes
What makes 1800 Tequila special is the ability to mix with citrus or other common mixers and still retain its flavor while being subtle enough to not overwhelm the additions. The blanco is especially good for mixing cocktails and in fact we prefer it for the majority of mixed drinks.
