The Voyage of Buck (Edinburgh) has developed a special taco menu featuring dishes that have been designed to perfectly complement the flavour profile of the iconic Margarita cocktail, made with PATRÓN Silver Tequila. Tacos range from lamb shoulder with Greek yoghurt to feta cheese and butternut squash, drizzled in red chilli oil.

Tee and John McCellan will be hosting a “Vinyl Nights” DJ set on February 23rd.

Other bars across the city are also celebrating with PATRÓN in their own unique way.
These International Margarita Day celebrations pay homage to the Mexican roots of PATRÓN and its tequila-making tradition. Passionately handcrafted in Jalisco by PATRÓN’s familia, maintaining a tireless dedication to achieve perfection in every drop. PATRÓN uses only the highest-quality three natural ingredients masterfully combined to ensure consistency and quality in production handcrafting the finest tequila in the world.
Since the brand’s inception in 1989, PATRÓN Tequila continues to experiment, explore and create bold innovations whilst staying committed to its handcrafted production process that delivers only the highest quality, 100% naturally perfect tequila. PATRÓN Tequila uses 100% simply perfect ingredients - agave, water and yeast - and crafted in small batches to ensure consistency and quality. PATRÓN has one goal in mind and that’s to create the finest tequila in the world.
Max Macauley, 2022 winner of ‘PATRÓN Perfectionists’ and host of the International Margarita Day event at Hoot The Redeemer, Edinburgh says: “As a member of the PATRÓN familia, it’s inspiring to work with bar teams to celebrate Margarita Month. In my eyes, PATRÓN stands for passion and the handcrafted perfection - something that we want to reflect in every drink I get my hands on! I’m proud to be hosting the ‘Locale takeover’ at Hoot The Redeemer alongside Ellie Raeside, also a perfectionist finalist - a one night only guest shift on the 15th March. I will also be doing a guest shift at Present Company in Liverpool on 5th March alongside my other perfectionist finalist, Christopher George.”
