Most “hombres” wouldn’t go near pink colored tequila, pero since quizas porque I’m a mujer or maybe I’m just a sucker for free alcohol, I accepted Gran Centenario‘s offer to try their new Rosangel tequila infused with hibiscus.

What had me curious was the addition of the hibiscus. Hisbiscus aka Jamaica. In my immigrant hood, you know it’s summer when the Mexican markets put out their huge jugs of aguas frescas and my favorite is aua de jamaica.
Rosangel Gran Centenario Reposado Tequila isn’t sweet pero the hibiscus makes it’s flavor smooth. I’m not a huge tequila drinker pero I found that making frozen margaritas with it made me and others happy with the subtle hibiscus sabor.
Rosangel Gran Centenario Reposado Tequila is clearly being marketed to women who maybe would like to do pink shots or drink a pink cocktail, pero for those of us that stay away from mujer marketed products, the sabor is fuerte enough to join your summer bar.
