No, No, No Jose Cuervo: Counsel From The Bar At Bix, San Francisco
While hanging at the bar at Bix in San Francisco, our Bar Tender, explained a few tequila tips to me:
- The first was never to use Jose Cuervo Tequila because it has sugar in it.
- Second, only use tequila made with 100 percent Agave
- Third, if you are mixing a margarita, in his opinion, only use tequila blanco–or the clear stuff. He said more expensive tequilas get lost in the mix.
The margarita served at Bix was tasty with a zing of lime. It had a fresher, lighter taste than a richer, sweeter margarita. Great for a summer night.
