Pre-mixed Agave products

[MrAgave]

I saw these on my last trip to Mexico and thought they would be worth trying. Never got around to it unfortunately, and didn't bring them back with me. Anybody have a chance to try one of the pre-mixed, canned tequila products?

Narangina Tenampa Mix, Tenampa Reposado mixed with Orange Soda

Casco Mix, Casco Viejo Grapefruit Soda

New Mix, El Jimador Blanco and Squirt

I tried the new mix at Herradura on a tour and it was awful, unset my stomach.
And then we had one at Industrializadora de Agave, can't remember the name, it tasted better but still didn't agree with me. Maybe its the mixto.

Probably good I didn't try them then...

I tried the New Mix and didn't find it that bad. As long as you don't set your expectations too high... has there really ever been a 'pre-mixed cocktail' that tastes as good as a freshly made one?

I will say this though, my wife doesn't drink beer, so having New Mix along when we were out boating gave her something that she could sip on.

So I tried all of the New Mix products when I was at Casa Herradura a couple of weeks ago and I thought they were decent for a pre-mixed / canned product. Coming from a can I expected them to be overly sweet, but the lineup was surprising... not available in US yet.

They have more than the 2 flavors I originally saw in Chihuahua:
Toronja (Squirt / Grapefruit)
Sangrita (Grapefruit / Sangrita)
Toranjo Rosa (Pink Grapefruit)
Durazno (Peach)
Black (cola)

They sold over one million cans last year, so obviously someone is drinking them... nice sub for a brew.
