When the summertime temperatures get high, there are few better ways to cool down than with a refreshing cold cocktail.
One of our favorite drinks as of late is a Paper Plane on ice, which is typically made with whiskey - but we like to sub in our organic, additive-free Añejo tequila instead. Plus, since it’s always a hit, we typically batch this beverage, making it the perfect thing to bring to backyard barbecues.

Regardless if you’re a longtime drinker or new to agave spirits, there is so much that is not known or misunderstood about tequila.

‘Tis the season for holiday parties, celebratory nights out with friends, and, of course, festive cocktails! To ‘cheers’ to the winter holiday season, we were recently inspired to try out blogger Half Baked Harvest’s Spicy Pomegranate Ginger Paloma recipe – but swapped out tequila for Doña Loca Espadín mezcal to incredibly delicious results. We highly recommend making this seasonal cocktail (with kick) for your next gathering this month.
