Sangrita, meaning 'little blood' in Spanish, traces its roots to the state of Jalisco, Mexico, the birthplace of tequila. Originally, Sangrita was crafted from the leftover juices of fruit plates served at local cantinas, mixed with chili and salt. As tequila became synonymous with celebration, Sangrita evolved into its inseparable sidekick, designed not to mask, but to complement and enhance tequila’s earthy, peppery notes. Its signature red hue pays homage to the sun-drenched agave fields and the fiery spirit of Mexican culture.
