5 Great Things To Do With Top-Shelf Tequila

By now, you're probably aware that the tequila scene is a lot more about "artisanal" and "100-percent agave" and a lot less about "Tequila Sunrises" and "shooters with a beer chaser" than it was a few years back. That said, while high-end brands like Patrón, Partida, Don Julio and the like make for great sipping on their own, we always like to mix things up a bit.

That's why we have compiled this list of five great tequila drinks in which using the good stuff really makes a difference. Tequila is a robust spirit, and a good cocktail should enhance its characteristic flavors -- while not requiring a souvenir shot glass from Señor Frog's.

Cheers!

these slideshows would be much improved if the recipe was right with the slide instead of having to click on another page.

Have mercy! All those recipes look very enticing. I prefer a cold shot in a glass though. Anyone here ever heard of Tres Generations tequila? A friend of mine gave me a bottle. It's probably the best tequila I've ever tasted.

This article should have been called "5 great ways for little girls to drink tequila." Chill it, drink it, period.
