The product has been picking up steam since it's arrival on the market in December 2015. Now, it is available in Alberta liquor stores. In addition to having it as a sipper, you can make this tequila hibiscus cocktail at home.
If you don't have hibiscus and pink salt, you can just use sea salt for the rim.
