Mammacita

If your experience of tequila starts with licking salt from your hand and ends with you pulling a disgusted face then it’s time to rewind.

Tequila is a much misunderstood spirit. Today’s Big Deal from Mammacita is a fun way to learn about this versatile liquor while learning how to create some authentic tequila cocktails.

New Mexican cantina, tequila and mezcal bar

Mammacita is a new Mexican cantina, tequila and mezcal bar on St Mary’s Place in St Andrews.

The way they tell it, their food is ‘authentic street-food style’, their tequila bar is ‘pure gold’, and their ‘frozen Margaritas are colder than your ex’s heart’.

Choice of masterclass

This Big Deal is for four people to enjoy a tequila cocktail masterclass from the talented tequila wranglers behind the bar at Mammacita.

There are two to choose from:

Margarita Tres Masterclass

With option one, you are greeted with a frozen Margarita on arrival, followed by time with one of the bar’s expert mixologists learning how to make a Peach Passion Margarita and a Las Colorados Margarita.

Additional guests may be added for £12 per person up to a maximum group size of ten.

Especial Tequila Masterclass

Option two starts with a frozen Margarita on arrival. Next, you will learn how to make a Guerrero Sour, Jalisco Heat and a Tequila Sour.

Additional guests may be added for £14 per person up to a maximum group size of ten.

Supplements for additional guests are payable direct to bar. Additional guests to be arranged when making reservation.

Happy muchachos

This very excitable review was left on TripAdvisor:

‘Every part of this restaurant was incredible! Food- Yes! Staff- Yes… My lover and I go here at least twice a week! Perfect place! 10/10 recommend to all… The Margaritas and Pina Coladas are class. The service was quick and the staff is lovely! TAKE YOUR LOVERS TO MAMMACITA!!!!’

Fun night out

Well, what can we add to that?

This offer would be fantastic for a celebration or a fun night out with friends. It would make a great addition to a stag or hen night and, of course, it would be perfect for anyone who wants to learn a little more about tequila.

All we can say is ‘TAKE YOUR LOVERS TO MAMMACITA!!!!’

All three of them… should be an interesting evening.
