A drink that has crossed borders, and is recognized and consumed throughout the world, but it is also famous for its gastronomy.

Here you can enjoy Jalisco food that includes delicacies such as red menudo (stew made of beef tripe), birria (stew made with goat meat), pozole (brothy soup made with pork, hominy, and red chiles), tortas ahogadas (rusty bread roll filled with pork carnitas and red onions, “drowned” in a red chile sauce), sopes, and pork stew in green and red sauce, to name a few.

If you want to explore the local cuisine you can try: camarones al tequila (shrimp with tequila), filete tequileño (fillet), salsa borracha (red sauce with tequila), pechuga agavera (chicken Brest), tostadas de chorizo con cuerito (sausage and preserving pork skin in vinegar) and gorditas de horno montadas en hojas de roble en la sierra de Tequila.

If you want to try something sweet we recommend you the tequila sorbet and the mango and plum preserves.

The most famous desserts in the town is the jericalla, a flan that is baked until the cream is burned.

If you want to have an encounter with the local gastronomy you can visit the “Cleofas Mota” Gastronomic Market, with a great variety of appetizers, or the “La Capilla” canteen, where you can taste the traditional “Batanga” (drink created in the town, with a unique combination of cola, lemon juice, and salt served in a frosty glass) or a tejuino (drink with lemon or lemon sorbet, salt, piquín pepper, and tequila).
