"OK. Drink we're about to make is called a Tequila Slammer. We're going to take a shot glass. And we're going to grab our tequila. And measure out one ounce. Now tequila is made from an Agave plant. And it's aged in oak barrels. And the, the amount of time that they age it in the oak barrel is, is going to change the, the tequila itself. And actually change the color too. Because it's going to take on the color of the oak barrels that they make it in. So a gold tequila is aged in, in the casks for up to four years. Now there's also Mezcal which is pretty much the same thing, it's just made in a different area. Now that we got that out of the way, we're going to pour in Mountain Dew. And there's a special way to take it. It is the slammer. So put your hand over the top and smash it on the bar and take it down. That's the Tequila Slammer. Bottoms up."
