Hornitos Lime Flavored Tequila Lime Shot
Hornitos Lime Shot is a lime-flavored tequila from Hornitos — bright, zesty lime over the brand's 100% blue agave base, built for the chilled shot experience.
Hornitos was founded in 1950 by Don Francisco Javier Sauza in Tequila, Jalisco, named for the traditional "hornitos" (little ovens) used to roast agave. The Lime Shot is a flavored expression that pairs the brand's agave character with a fresh, citrus-forward lime profile — designed to be served cold as a ready-to-go shot without the need for salt and lime on the side.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Hornitos Lime Shot meant to be served?
Chilled and served as a shot — the lime flavor is built in, so it is ready to drink straight from the bottle when cold, without needing salt and a lime wedge on the side.
Is it still 100% agave tequila?
It is based on Hornitos' 100% blue agave tequila with added lime flavor. The flavoring makes it a flavored-tequila product rather than a straight 100% agave bottling.
What can I mix it with?
It works on its own as a chilled shot, or as a shortcut base for a quick margarita or paloma where the lime character is already present.
