TIP OF THE DAY: Hot Apple Cider Cocktail
When you feel the first chill of fall, it’s time to snuggle up with a hot cocktail. For your consideration, we present a Heated Affair, created by Jacques Bezuidenhout, who makes the drink with Tequila Partida and spiced apple cider.
Bezuidenhout is Brand Ambassador for Tequila Partida. A brand ambassador is a corporate employee who represents a brand to consumers, the trade, the media and other key constituencies. The job focus is to communicate the brand message: product features and benefits, and how the brand differs from others in the category. The Partida Brand Ambassador travels the country (or the world) meeting people. Of course, in the process, glasses of tequila are shared. Put this on your bucket list as a job to have.

The worm, by the way, is a larval form of a moth that lives on the agave plant, from which both mezcal and tequila are made. |
