La Cava de Tequila at De San Angel Inn

This is a new restaurant/bar in in the Mexico Pavilion at Epcot and their specialty is, obviously, tequila. The Mexican Pavilion is one of my favorite in the World Showcase in Epcot because it has a great atmosphere, a cool ride and interesting shopping, all in an Aztec pyramid.

The new addition of La Cava makes it even better. We enjoyed our margaritas so much that we had to bring Julie and Curtis back for a second visit. The menu included over 70 types of tequila. We tried the Margarita flight with 5 different versions. My favorite was the Pepino, with El Mayor Blanco Tequila with trile sec, carmelized pineapple juice, cucumber and agave nectar syrup with lemon grass salt. (Second one from the front in the picture.) Jeff's favorite was the Jalapeno, also with El Mayor Blanco Tequila, jalapeno lime juice and agave nectar syrup with hibiscus Himalayan salt rim. (First one in the picture.) The other margaritas in the sampler included Naranja Roja, with blood orange juice and hibiscus syrup topped with blood orange foam (red in the middle), Fruta Dela Pasion (orange with foam on top, our least favorite) and Aguacate (last one) with Midori and fresh avocado.

I wish I could have a Pepino or Jalapeno one right now! -Joy
