*Tommy's Margarita:
Tommy's is a mexican restaurant in San Fransisco and the world's best tequila bar in the world. It has also pours the most extensive collection of 100% agave tequila outside of Mexico .
According to Mexican laws a spirit can be named TEQUILA, when is the 100% distill product of the Mexican native plant called Blue Agave. (Agave Azul Weber Tequilana). In a few words these are the most quality tequilas, and actually are the only ones that you will find at Baba Au Rum! So please trust our suggestions about tequila when you find out that we dont have your favorite popular (but not really quality...) tequila.
We make Tommy's Margarita mixing 100% de Agave Tequila, fresh lime juice and organic agave nectar. Fresh crispy and classic.
Agave nectar is a natural sweetener commercially produced from several species of the Agave plant. It can be produced in specific Mexican states
pertaining to certificate of origin!
