If you wanted to quench your thirst with a “Frutos del Bosque” or, in English, “Forest Fruits,” Tekila Mexican Cuisine could take care of you.
The restaurant was one of the restaurants that took part in this year’s Memphis Summer Cocktail Festival, which was held July 11th at The Kent.
“It’s kind of like a jam, but it’s pretty much strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, all blended,” says Ricardo Rivera, financial controller of the restaurant, which has four locations. “And then it was passion fruit puree, lime juice, and lemon lime soda.”
Production manager Molly Willmott described the event as “a cocktail festival celebrating Greater Memphis and Mid-South tastes.”
More than 25 spirits brands were represented, she says.
About 800 people attended the festival, which was co-hosted by the Memphis Flyer and Leadership Memphis/Volunteer Memphis.
