To top off the summer spirit, Hornitos has teamed up with La Michoacana, because nothing screams summer like a delicious icy treat. This collaboration is set to introduce a delightful fusion of flavors with the Paleta-rita cocktail.
With both brands rooted in Mexican tradition, Hornitos and La Michoacana share synergies that are rich in both flavor and culture. Hornitos’ 100% blue agave tequila, boldly established in 1950 to honor Mexican Independence, and La Michoacana, renowned for its frozen fruit novelties, merge their summer staples to create a new, revitalizing cocktail experience. The Paleta-rita combines Hornitos' award-winning, fresh agave tequila with La Michoacana’s refreshing paletas, offering flavors like lime, mango chamoy, strawberry, and pineapple. The Paleta-rita is not just a cocktail; it’s a symbol of support for the LGBTQ+ community, reflecting Hornitos' long standing allyship and commitment to inclusivity. Celebrate Pride and beyond with this colorful libation, perfect for sipping, savoring, and embracing the MARG MODE mindset.
