Tamarindo Margarita with DeLeón Tequila for Latin Heritage Month

Although Latin / Hispanic Heritage Month ends on October 15th, we have teamed up with DeLeón Tequila to encourage everyone to support the Latin(x/e/a/o) bar community all 365 Days of the year. As a proud Puerto Rican born in New York with La Isla del Encanto in my heart, I always say, “yo no nací en Puerto Rico, pero Puerto Rico nació en mi.”

As Co-Founder of Thirsty, which is a fully woman owned media company with myself, a very proud Latina at the helm, I am constantly reminded that Latinas and Black women receive less than 1% of venture capital investment. I want to send a special thank you to the team at DeLeón Tequila for supporting and investing in the Latin community by toasting up their Tamarindo Margarita.
