One of the cornerstones of Pride festivities are colorful and diverse food and beverage offerings — and nothing complements those bites and sips more than Casamigos Tequila and Mezcal.
Not only are the balanced and elegant flavors of Casamigos perfect for drinking in a range of cocktails (or on its own — no salt and lime needed), but friendship and community are a cornerstone of the brand itself. Casamigos was created by friends, for friends. The result is a great tasting tequila intended to be shared with close friends in genuine moments of connection. It’s an easy-drinking, adaptable ultra-premium tequila that goes with anything, anyone, anywhere.
We can’t think of a better vibe to bring to Pride than that of friendship and fun — and Casamigos helps keep that energy going all day (and night!) long. Keep reading for a list of some of the best DC-area spots for sipping on Casamigos during Pride Month.
