Celebrate World Tequila Day at Pueblo Bonito

When it comes to signature spirits of the Americas, few evoke as much passion—and heritage—as tequila. Alongside rum, bourbon, and pisco, tequila is one of only a handful of liquors considered endemic to the Americas, and Mexico’s claim to it is a proud one. Made exclusively from the blue agave plant and protected by a Denomination of Origin, true tequila can only be produced in certain states in Mexico. And there's no better place to celebrate its deep cultural roots and vibrant flavors than with a knowledgeable mixologist who can pour knowledge along with a well-made drink. At Pueblo Bonito Resorts, World Tequila Day is more than a date on the calendar—it’s a toast to tradition. In fact, July 24th has given us the perfect excuse to sip, savor, celebrate, and promote Mexico’s most iconic spirit.

Whether you’re already a devoted fan or just beginning your agave journey, Pueblo Bonito’s resorts in Los Cabos and Mazatlán offer plenty of ways to get your first taste or learn something new.

At Pueblo Bonito Pacífica in Cabo San Lucas, tequila lovers can embark on an immersive tasting experience led by a resident expert. Held at the Refresca Tequila Bar within Siempre restaurant, this guided session introduces guests to three premium tequilas—blanco, reposado, and añejo or extra añejo—as well as a premium mezcal. During the tasting, you will also sample a spread of traditional Mexican accompaniments like worm salt, tajín, sea salt, citrus, and a variety of snacks that highlight the spirit’s nuances.

Over the course of about 80 minutes, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how tequila is made, the agave plants used, and how to properly savor its many layers. It’s an ideal way to add meaning and memory to your margarita or to discover a new sipping favorite.

Of course, not everything needs to be a teachable moment. If you’d rather just enjoy tequila in the form of a beautifully mixed drink, the bars across Pueblo Bonito Resorts are more than ready to support your cause. In Los Cabos, try a craft cocktail infused with seasonal fruit or smoky mezcal notes at Sky Pool at Sunset Beach, or savor a paloma with a view at Aquabar at Pueblo Bonito Rosé.

In Mazatlán, sip poolside at La Cordeliere, or let the bartender at Pueblo Bonito Mazatlán’s Cilantro’s bar mix up something with looks and a dash of chile salt. Whether you prefer your tequila straight, stirred, shaken, or dressed to impress, you’ll find yourself surrounded by inspired options.

You can also extend the experience by bringing a bottle or more home with you. Guests staying at Montecristo Estates Luxury Villas can walk to the Wine and Agave Shop at the clubhouse, a haven for connoisseurs of Mexico’s finest spirits. This boutique liquor store located by the restaurant, pool, and spa features a curated selection of high-end tequilas and mezcals, including hard-to-find labels and decorative bottles ideal for gifts or souvenirs. Whether you're toasting at your villa or stocking up for your return, you'll find something truly special that captures the spirit of Mexico’s finest traditions.

Raise your glass on July 24th, and say “¡Salud!” to the spirit that brings people together, one pour at a time.
