Celebrate National Tequila Day 24th July at Flipside and Faraway Cocktail Clubs in Bristol
Posted on: 23 Jul 2018With an abundance of National Days to blame our questionable drinking habits on, this one is well worthy of a Tuesday trip to your favourite cocktail bar.
National Tequila Day is on Tuesday 24th July. You can celebrate this famous Mexican spirit at Flipside and Faraway Cocktail Clubs, they have some of the largest tequila-based cocktail menus in Bristol.
Flipside Cocktail Club, sat opposite Clifton Down, is a well-established evening venue serving up some of the best cocktails in the city with old time classics accompanying their own creations. with over 50 tequilas and mezcals, Faraway know their stuff when it comes to these fine Mexican spirits!
Opened on 13th April, Faraway Cocktail Club is a slice of tropical paradise in central Bristol. Both menus feature a hefty number of tequila and mezcal based boozy numbers. Take their famous Espresso Martini with Patron Café for example, or The Toreador: Ocho tequila, apricot liqueur, lime and sugar. Or The Medicina: Altos Blanco, Bruxo mezcal, fresh ginger and lime. They have many drinks on offer priced at 2 for £10.
Mezcal, tequila’s half-sister, is made from any type of agave plant whereas tequila is made from a single type- the agave tequilana (blue agave)- and can only be produced in the state of Jalisco and in small parts of four other states. The production process is also different from tequila which leads to a distinctly different flavour profile.
Flipside Cocktail Club is at 109 Whiteladies Rd, Bristol, BS8 2PB.
Faraway Cocktail Club is at 15 Small St, Bristol BS1 1DE.
