When the transition from summer to fall starts, the leaves change, the temperature drops, and football games rule the arenas and screens on Sundays. While folks look forward to a festive football party, the most favorite aspect is probably the snack spread.

 

Usually, people do not discriminate when it comes to food pairings. Beer and salty snacks like peanuts, pretzels, or popcorn are the “all-time classics,” but it is time for an upgrade, don't you think? Why not try spicy mango tequila and all the noshes influenced by this beverage to heat things up in the fall?

 

The Best Bar Foods

Good food makes every hour happy. With cocktails or Blanco tequila infused with 100% natural flavors, an appropriate snack can set the stage for the rest of the evening. Here are the best five bar foods to pair with spicy mango tequila.

 

  1. Nachos

There is nothing better than nachos to go with tequila. That is why it holds the number one spot. With crunchy chips doused in melted cheese and loaded with guacamole and several other toppings, this layered bar food goes perfectly with tequila.

 

  1. Jalapeno Poppers

Jalapeno Poppers is a staple snack, but you may not have a fryer close by. What will you do? Just enjoy this cheesy appetizer in a new but easier way – the Jalapeno Popper Dip. It is a cheesy, creamy dip made with roasted peppers. This dip can make the poppers tastier and much more enjoyable.

3. Ceviche

This one is a more sensible choice. It is also better for you if you want to lighten up your happy hour. Ceviche is made of chopped whitefish, shrimp, plum tomatoes, diced onion, and chili peppers marinated in lime juice – a snack worth drooling over! The fish in ceviche is “cooked” via a process called “denaturation,” which alters the protein structure of the seafood.

 

4. Popcorn

Popcorn is only second to pretzels among the most widely preferred bar foods. The buttery and salty goodness of popcorn pairs perfectly with just about any drink, from beer to tequila. In reality, tequila goes impeccably well with popcorn. That is why a celebrated restaurant in Scottsdale created an heirloom – the popcorn-infused cocktail.

 

5. Flaming Hot Cheese

There is not much to say about flaming hot cheese. The name of this dish is self-explanatory. The Queso Flameado, in Spanish, is not an ordinary cheese dip, mind you. With diced green chilies, chorizo, two ounces of tequila, and, of course, cheese, this dip will literally set your taste buds on fire! Once created, the dip will be set ablaze, and after the flames go out, dive in with a chip in one hand and a glass of tequila in the other.

For those with a Bigger Appetite

Is this high caloric intake too much for you? Don’t worry! Spicy mango tequila, or any other type of tequila, for that matter, is the healthiest alcoholic beverage there is! Besides, there are a few healthier, veggie alternatives to the bar foods described above. You can try them instead.
