It’s no secret that tequila is having a bit of a moment, or multiple years’ worth of a moment, right now. Celebrity tequilas abound, bars are focussing more intently than ever on their tequila drinks and offerings, and interest in tequila cocktails is ever-rising. Just this past year has seen a 47% increase in interest in Mexico’s national drink: the much-loved Paloma. So to spread even more awareness of this delightful drink, Franklin & Sons is giving out £30,000 worth of free Palomas for National Tequila Day (July 24).
Free Palomas
The giveaway, which is taking place online and in select venues, finds the mixer brand partnering up with Cazcabel and Boom Battle Bar. Across Boom Battle Bar venues in Wales and England, over 2,500 Palomas will be up for grabs on July 27 and 28. Now, that’s not exactly National Tequila Day – but it might be a bit easier to convince yourself to go out and drink free cocktails on a Thursday or Friday evening than on a Monday!
The giveaway only lasts as long as the stock lasts and is available on a first come first served basis. So don’t leave it too late to try and claim your free drink. London locations include Aldgate East, Ealing, Oxford Street, The O2, and Wandsworth, with plenty more venues spread throughout the country.
More free Palomas
But wait, there’s more! Franklin & Sons is also giving away 700 cocktails kits for you to make the drink at home. The kits contain all the ingredients needed to make the perfect Paloma. There’s tequila, lime juice, sugar syrup, Franklin & Sons’ Pink Grapefruit Soda, and dried pink grapefruit to garnish. To enter, just head to their website and fill in the competition form. Act fast, though, as the Paloma cocktail kit giveaway is only running until July 14.
EVEN MORE FREE STUFF
That’s not all! They’re not just stopping at giving away free Palomas, as a concurrently running competition will also see participants given the chance to win £150 of Boom Battle Bar games along with a free round of Palomas for their group!
To enter, all you have to do is upload a picture of your Paloma creation (made using your cocktail kit) to Instagram, and tag @franklinandsons with #remarkabledrinkswithoutcompro
The competition is for over 18s only, with full terms and conditions at www.franklinandsons.co.uk.
