National Rosa Tequila Day

Enjoy being in the pink on this delightful National Rosa Tequila Day! Set aside the standard and boring, instead heading for some pink-a-licious drinks made from fantastic rosa tequila.

History of National Rosa Tequila Day

This day’s history can be traced back to the 1940s when, ordering bourbon barrels but receiving red wine barrels by mistake, the concept of rosa tequila was born to the Real family. The motivation to begin celebrating National Rosa Tequila Day came through Calirosa, a premium tequila brand offering a twist on traditional tequila through a blend of Mexican craft and Californian style, in partnership with the Real family.

The purpose behind National Rosa Tequila Day is to show appreciation for the unique flavor offerings provided by rosa tequila, turning a traditional standard cocktail into a fascinating and refreshing new favorite.

Show some love and appreciation for this specialty distilled and aged liquor that offers a one-of-a-kind experience on National Rosa Tequila Day!
