Spicy Pineapple & Mango Sorbet Margarita for #NationalTequilaDay featuring @fierotequila Serrano #ad21+ I had to make a spicy margarita for y’all & it’s so easy using Fiero Tequila for spicy margaritas because it’s already infused with peppers! I used the serrano expression but there is also a habanero expression that’s even spicier 🔥. I love the vegetal notes and the consistent spice in every sip. It’s the easiest way to make spicy margaritas at home & for summer entertaining. See full recipe below: Spicy Pineapple & Mango Sorbet Margarita Ingredients 2 ounces Fiero Serrano Tequila 1 ounce Pineapple Juice ¼ ounce of Agave Syrup (or to taste) 1 scoop Mango Sorbet 1 ounce Lime Juice Method Rim glass with Tajin Add all ingredients to a shaker Shake then strain over ice Garnish with pineapple fronds, edible flower & dried lime wheel #BeautifulBooze #FieroTequila #SpicyMargarita #Tequila

Whiskey Time! We are trying @marydowlingwhiskey & I LOVE the story behind this whiskey y’all! #marydowlingpartner I started Beautiful Booze with a love for whiskey and I am so excited to work with a brand that has an EPIC story of a powerful woman behind it! First off, we are trying 2 expressions: -High Rye Bourbon Finished in Tequila Barrels with notes of light florals, tangy fruit & smoky tones. -Wheated Bourbon Double Oak Cask Strength with notes of chocolate, cherry, oak & spices. A few facts about Mary Dowling include: -She was the most successful and influential woman distiller in the male-dominated world of pre-prohibition bourbon. -She was the only owner to shift production to Mexico and escape dry laws - hiring Joseph Beam to dismantle and reassemble her distillery in Mexico, helping the Beam family stay afloat during prohibition. If you are like me and always searching for some AMAZING whiskey for your home bar, I recommend both of these bottles! It’s always fun to know the story behind the brand and I am so excited to share the story of Mary Dowling and celebrate her contributions in the bourbon industry! *Mary Dowling Whiskeys have limited availability in stores but are available nationwide online.* #BeautifulBooze #marydowling #bourbon #whiskey
