The right tequila

I've found when making TNTs, you really need to use tequila that is 100% agave. If you try one that is not you will find that it is quite good; however, if you then try one that is 100% agave, it is much much better. Ultra premium stuff like Patron should be reserved for drinking straight up. For my TNTs, I like the Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado tequila. Its 100% agave and its about 25$ for 750ml
