Prepare for National Tequila Day with Cabo Wabo drink recipes plus 30 more tequila recipe choices

SKYY Spirits & Sammy Hagar decided to whip up a little Mexican influence and intrigue while slipping in a bit of ‘kick ass’ Rock ‘n Roll attitude to the new bottle design of Cabo Wabo Tequila just in time for National Tequila Day. While the bottle is completely renovated and strikingly new, the liquid inside remains the same quality product you’ve known all along. This carries along with the theme that seems to be sweeping the nation in the liquor industry; classic is back and getting a face lift. What’s old is new. The liquor industry is bucking tradition and upgrading to a more modernized look and feel whether it happens to be a bottle, cocktail or whether it’s all in the name.
