Hands-On Farmers Market Cocktail Class with El Tesoro Tequila
Saturday, June 23, 2018, 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Learn to make farm-fresh cocktails at the farmers market!
Join CUESA and El Tesoro® in the CUESA Kitchen, located in the bustling Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, at the peak of summer for a perfect afternoon of cocktail making and fun.
El Tesoro will be hosting a custom cocktail class led by Brand Ambassador Luis Navarro. Attendees will work with locally-grown produce to create a fruit puree incorporated into an El Tesoro Margarita and Paloma.
- Toast to the start of the class with a welcome pour of El Tesoro hand-crafted tequila and learn from an expert about this spirit’s rich history
- Taste and incorporate abundant produce (think ripe Apache apricots, juicy Seascape strawberries and luscious herbs) into your creation
- Learn how to make your own craft cocktails from start to finish
- Visit farmers market sellers for an inside look at how to select produce for a seasonal summer drink
- Snack on delicious, cocktail-friendly bites
What says summer better than a margarita, gathering with friends, and enjoying summer fruit? We look forward to seeing you there. But don’t delay in getting your tickets—these classes always sell out!
About El Tesoro
El Tesoro® is a truly unique, ultra-premium tequila that is double-distilled to proof. Created in the painstakingly traditional way, El Tesoro uses a Tahona wheel to crush the agave piñas before distillation at La Alteña Distillery, founded in 1937 by Don Felipe Camarena.
