A Labor-Less Labor Day with Hornitos Lime Shot

After laboring year round, everyone has earned a special drink and some additional time off. Whether you’re planning for a final summer hurrah or a relaxing weekend at home, Hornitos® Tequila wants to help you toast the unofficial end of summer without much work.

Have yourself a labor-less Labor Day with Hornitos® Lime Shot, which takes all the work out of the tequila shot occasion by combining Hornitos® Plata 100% blue agave tequila with the refreshing taste of lime and a hint of salt. No need to worry about using salt, lime and knives, this innovative spirit transforms the salt + tequila + lime ritual into a single bottle that is great tasting and convenient all in one.

If you’d rather sit back and enjoy a cocktail, there is no need to exhaust yourself by fixing drinks that require a lot of shaking or muddling. Hornitos® Tequila has a few easy to mix cocktails that contain just a few ingredients and are still delicious, proving again that Hornitos® is Not Just Any Tequila.
