Thirst for Knowledge: Round 9 - Tequila

Hi Fancy Folks!

Were you one of the many people who enjoyed a Margarita yesterday (for Cinco de Mayo)? Does your idea of a perfect island day involve sipping a margarita on a tropical beach? Even if it doesn't, this episode is packed with fun, facts and fun facts about tequila.

Join us (Ben and Dr. Lex) as we go beyond the sombreros and vaguely Mexican-themed decor to dive into the heart, soul, and science of this fascinating liquor. We explore the science of the agave plant, discover how the appellation of tequila came about and even discuss the infamous tequila worm.

Dr. Lex even shares her favorite margarita recipe.

Pour yourself a glass and learn along with us.

And always remember to drink, and science, responsibly.
