From Clooney To Crawford, From Casimigos To Casamigas: A New Jalepeño-Infused Tequila

the three drinkers From Clooney To Crawford, From Casimigos To Casamigas: A New Jalepeño-Infused Tequila

In this new world of celebrity drinks, Casamigos is probably the biggest success story of the lot. Fronted, quite gorgeously, by George Clooney, it proved itself to be way more than just a bottle with a name attached. So much so that drinks giant Diageo acquired the brand for eye watering sums in 2017 making Clooney the highest paid actor that year. Who knows how much involvement he has these days, but that doesn’t stop Casamigos teaming up with another pretty face – legendary supermodel Cindy Crawford.

“As much as I love Casamigos, my go to drink for a fun night is a skinny, spicy margarita,” she said, which explains the switch up with this new tequila. Jalapeño peppers are added to the 100% Blue Weber agave blanco for a tingle of the tongue and naturally spicy flavour, making the increasingly popular Spicy Margarita much easier to make in a hurry.

Cindy’s involvement rings even more changes however, as you can see from the glamorised label. The ‘o’ in Casamigos has been replaced by an ‘a’, turning the word from masculine to feminine. You’ll also find red ink, flames, lips, and Crawford’s signature adorning the design. This collaboration makes all the more sense when you discover that Rande Gerber, who kickstarted Casamigos with Clooney, also happens to be married to Cindy Crawford! It’s a small world (if you’re rich and famous!)

Casamigas Jalapeño Tequila appears to only be available in the US for the time being, priced at $49.99, but we’re sure it’ll be widely available soon if they’re previous releases are anything to go by.
