Cheers to International Tequila Day!

Raise a glass to tequila! Every year on July 24th, we celebrate International Tequila Day, a day dedicated to this iconic Mexican spirit. It's a chance to learn about tequila's rich history, unique production process, and the delicious versatility it brings to cocktails and beyond. Whether you're a seasoned tequila aficionado or a curious newcomer, this day is your chance to explore this spirit’s vibrant flavors and cultural significance.

Produced only in specific regions using the blue agave plant, tequila's authenticity and quality are guaranteed. The agave hearts are roasted or baked to convert starches into sugars, and then fermented and distilled to create a variety of tequilas.

From the crisp agave flavor of unaged “blanco” (silver) and the golden “reposado” (rested) with hints of oak to the deeply flavored “añejo” (aged) boasting complex notes, tequila offers a spectrum of flavors. It’s the foundation of classic cocktails like Margaritas and Palomas, but it can also be enjoyed neat or on the rocks, allowing the unique agave flavor to take center stage.

You can celebrate International Tequila Day with Pueblo Bonito in any way that suits your mood.

Tee up and toast with a challenging round at Los Cabos’ renowned Quivira Golf Club, and then make your way to the Quivira Clubhouse, located between the first tee and the 18th green. This thatched-roof restaurant features breathtaking ocean views and a satisfying menu. Pair light bites or a delicious lunch with a handcrafted tequila cocktail, the perfect way to end an active morning.

A more casual — but equally satisfying — approach would be to order your tequila drink without moving from your Sunset Beach lounger. At the swanky SkyPool, you can soak up the rays and keep the relaxed vibes flowing with a refreshing tequila drink and handheld bites.

Whether you’re vacationing in the Baja California peninsula or on the mainland, a visit to Cilantro’s will reward you with a beachfront setting and a mouthwatering menu of fresh seafood and international dishes. Casual outdoor dining and unobstructed views are the main draw at both the Los Cabos and Mazatlán outposts, and complementing those with a tequila cocktail is always a good idea.

If you prefer to dress up your cocktail experience, there are plenty of options across the Pueblo Bonito Resorts.

In Mazatlán, head to Kelly’s Bar, where fine wood and handcrafted decorative details set the stage for an elegant evening of specialty cocktails made with the finest tequilas, wine, and spirits. A wide selection of hors d’oeuvres can amplify the most nuanced flavor notes in your tequila drink of choice.

Venture slightly away from your Mazatlán resort to lively Plaza Machado, where Casa 46 promises an exceptional artisanal dining experience in a meticulously restored historic mansion. Take off on a culinary journey of reimagined Mexican classics and don’t forget to include the national spirit. A tequila drink — whether ordered to kick off the evening or close out your meal — will certainly add to the authenticity of your experience.

If you’re in Los Cabos, head indoors to the Peninsula Lounge as the day winds down. Order a sophisticated Añejo Old Fashioned or a Smoky Paloma and enjoy live music as the sunset marks the end of another blissful day.

Or sip on a tequila aperitif at Sunset Beach’s LaFrida. It’s the perfect way to prime your taste buds for the culinary delights to come at the acclaimed gourmet restaurant.

No matter where you are or how you choose to celebrate, Pueblo Bonito offers the ideal setting to toast International Tequila Day!
