Bring a touch of natural sweetness to your agave collection with Hornitos Vanilla Honey Tequila. Born from a desire to shake up traditions and elevate the cocktail game, this flavored spirit takes the brand's crisp, 100% agave Plata tequila and infuses it with the rich flavors of vibrant honey and smooth vanilla. Whether you are looking for an approachable sipper or a creative twist for your next batch of drinks, this highly versatile 750mL bottle is a crowd-pleasing addition to the shelves at Nestor Liquor.
Bottled at a highly approachable 70 Proof (35% ALC/VOL), this expression is perfectly balanced to be enjoyed on its own or mixed. The true Plata tequila base provides a clean, earthy foundation that prevents the dessert-like vanilla and honey flavors from becoming overly cloying. It is a fantastic option for a chilled shot, but it truly excels when used to craft a Vanilla Honey Margarita or mixed with ginger ale for a refreshing highball.
