COCKTAIL
KITS
The brands will host a sweepstakes to give away these Mezcalada cocktail kits.

Mezcal and beer are an unlikely pairing. But they do have one thing in common –– they are both often paired with citrus.

MI MEDIA NARANJA
Translation: "my half-orange" = "my better half"
SOFT LAUNCH
Soft launching your relationship is the newest Instagram trend to raise your followers' eyebrows. Before Ilegal and Tecate reveal they are each other's media naranja, the brands will tease at their relationship on social.
