There are two very important holidays in February. Valentine’s Day (2/14) and National Margarita Day (2/22). Mezcal UNIÓN has you covered with 5 recipes to toast the moments!

In the past, Mezcaleros would carve their lovers’ names into agave leaves as they worked, hoping for good luck in romance. As a result, some might say Mezcal is for lovers. With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, love is in the air and Mezcal UNIÓN  is serving up a few cocktails to cheers to the romantic tradition. 

The Mezcal UNIÓN Passionfruit Paloma marries the sweetness of passionfruit with the tartness of grapefruit, culminating in a special and sparkling cocktail. For a simple and refreshing sip, try the Mezcal UNIÓN Mezcalade, finished with a beautiful lavender sprig and cucumber ribbon. If you’re searching for something unique, look no further than the Mezcal UNIÓN Watermelon Kombucha Cooler. This stunning pink cocktail features watermelon kombucha, resulting in a flavor both refreshing and bold.

Mezcal UNIÓN elevates the classic margarita cocktail with mezcal, a spirit that boasts a wider flavor range than tequila, encouraging a unique tasting experience. For a simple twist on the classic cocktail, Mezcal UNIÓN presents the Mezcal UNIÓN Margarita. This recipe honors everything you love about the traditional cocktail with the new addition of Mezcal UNIÓN Uno’s balanced, smooth taste  – a great choice when switching up the original margarita.

Chips Optional! Avocado is many things, but did you know it’s great in a margarita too? The Mezcal UNIÓN Avocado Margarita is a play on the classic with just four ingredients, making this a simple cocktail to serve up for friends on taco nights!

Mezcal UNIÓN is a multi-award-winning brand and the perfect combination of a handcrafted mezcal product. Produced collaboratively in Oaxaca, Mezcal UNIÓN preserves the tradition of handcrafted Mezcal production in Mexico. The brand’s goal is to support and generate the social development of indigenous communities through empowering maestros mezcaleros and agave farmers to become entrepreneurs and suppliers of the brand. Mezcal UNIÓN is the perfect balance of the clean crisp notes of the agave and the smooth taste – brought out by the artisanal process. Some mezcals tend to be heavily smoky, but Mezcal UNIÓN prides itself on its smooth taste, evidenced by its multiple prestigious awards. Mezcal UNIÓN can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in delicious cocktails. Find recipes at the bottom of the article. As always, drink responsibly.
