Last night, Julie and I hosted the 1st Annual Tequila & Salsa Party. We came up with the concept for this party on New Year's Eve, when we were discussing homemade salsas and drinking Patron with some like-minded friends. The idea is simple, really...everyone is encouraged to bring their own homemade salsa or bring a jar of their favorite salsa, and bring tequila for sipping and/or mixing. Including ourselves, we had 9 people in attendance, and it seems like everyone had a great time. Here's what we had at the party:

Tequila

• 1800 Silver
• Sol Dios Platinum
• Milagro Reposado
• Patron Anejo
• Sauza Blanco
• Tres Generaciones Anejo
• Jose Cuervo Classico

Salsa

• Chunky Tomato Salsa (mild)
• Chipotle Salsa (medium)
• Mango Salsa
• Roasted Tomatillo Salsa (medium-hot)
• Roasted Tomato and Chipotle Salsa (medium)
• Roasted Tomato, Poblano, Garlic, and Lime Salsa (medium)
• Roasted Tomato and Poblano Salsa (medium-hot)

Food

• Beef Tacos
• Brisket Tacos
• Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas
• Tortilla Soup
• Mexican Corn Dip
• Sopapilla Cheesecake
• Guacamole

The salsas were excellent, as was the tequila, food, and the company. We will definitely be doing this one again.
