Good tequila needs no salt, lemon, etc., to trick you into slamming it down, and creates no sore head!
That gold stuff folks drink is POISON!!
Blended in a sewer and colored with caramel, it is practically designed to give you a hangover!
Tequila is my choice, usually Chinaco Anejo, or Herradura Reposado.
I like to drink it al vampiro, that is, side by side with Sangrita, a spicy sort of Bloody Mary mix with lime chunks in it.
Sip one, then the other, and repeat.
