For a good cocktail and a good time, we put our trust in the ultimate partygoers: The Chainsmokers.
Gracing Top 40 radio and helming music for some of the world’s biggest parties can make you that sort of expert, as does owning a tequila company.
As investors in JAJA tequila, Drew Taggart and Alex Pall are key in the spirit brand’s commitment to free-spirited days and intimate nights.
JAJA first launched back in 2018 and was founded by brothers Maurice and Elliot Tebele (the latter brother is behind the F*** Jerry social media empire) and Martin Hoffstein.
"We developed JAJA's brand ethos to be ‘smile, laugh and celebrate,’" Elliot said at the time of JAJA’s launch. "With JAJA, we know we're celebrating with a great-tasting Tequila, but also keeping it unpretentious, light-hearted, cool, and of course eco-friendly."
Triple distilled and made of 100 percent blue Weber agave, the gluten-free, small batch tequila offers a smooth taste.
The Chainsmokers want you in on the action, so they’ve each developed a margarita inspired by their own personalities. Whichever one you choose, you’ll be good to go: they’re both tasty and easy to make.
For fans of light citrus flavors, opt for Taggart’s watermelon lime margarita. It has subtle notes of black pepper and citrus paired with limeade, spiked seltzer and watermelon.
Alternatively, Pall’s JAJA Hibiscus High Margarita offers light notes of vanilla, almond, honey and oak. The full-bodied añejo complements the refreshing nature of the hibiscus tea, sparkling water and blood orange.
