Ok we have covered the good part of the Tequila industry... now we gotta touch on the bad part of it as well. What are the additives that are allowed in Tequila? There are 4 allowed categories and they can't exceed more than 1% but who's checking? The additives are syrups, glycerin, oak extract and caramel coloring. We'll talk more about why they're bad on the next video! #drinks #destilados #cocktails #tequila

- TEQUILA JUNGLE BIRD 1.5 oz Tequila 3/4 oz Amaro/Aperitif 1.5 oz Pineapple Juice🍍 1/2 oz Lime Juice I really enjoy different bitter spirits and cocktails, especially when they are tropical. This @ritualzeroproof Aperitif alternative is great, it’s got all the bitter vibes and had a great flavor. There’s a lot of emphasis on being sober, and that’s great, but we should also talk about moderation. There’s legit NA cocktails out there like this jungle bird for when ya wanna take a break from the booze.
