Tequila

Tequila is made from the agave plant in Mexico and is normally around 80 proof. Being the main ingredient in Margaritas, Tequila is one of the most popular liquors in the world. As a bartender you'll soon become very familiar with the many types of tequila available.

Anejo is a form of tequila that is aged and sipped neat. Cheaper tequilas are fine for mixed drinks, but Anejo is preferred for shots as the aging takes some of the bite out of the liquor.
