Tequila: It's not just a drink, it's a place

Tequila: It's not just a drink, it's a place - Travel - Destination Travel - Mexico - msnbc.com: "TEQUILA, Mexico — It's said the national drink of Mexico has magical properties: It closes contracts and opens doors, makes shy people bold and helps form friendships.


To the uninitiated, the wrong tequila consumed incorrectly also opens medicine chests.
The first thing one learns on a tour of the heart of Mexico's tequila country is that no one here drinks tequila as a shooter — it's better sipped from a brandy snifter or champagne glass so that the full sweet and buttery flavors and aromas of the agave can come through."
