UFC inks sponsorship deal with Tequila CAZADORES

It has been a long outstanding tradition that major sports leagues will not accept  liquor, spirits or hard alcohol sponsors (ironically beer and other alcoholic bevarges are kosher). With the recent economic downturn there have been rumors that some leagues were exploring liquor sponsorship deals. 

Well the UFC has done away with that tradition with the latest annoucement (via MMAFighting) that Tequila CAZADORES will be the official spirit sponsor for the UFC. 

Handcrafted in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, the premier agave growing region, Tequila CAZADORES is an authentic 100% agave tequila deeply rooted in heritage. This makes it the best way to salute the authentic spirit of the UFC contenders.

I can't wait for when UFC fighters are featured in Tequila comercials, "When I want a refreshing drink after I just beat someone up I take a shot of Cazadores!"

Oh wait there is an offiicial 'Ultimate Shot'

CAZADORES(R) "ULTIMATE" SHOT DRINK

1 part Tequila CAZADORES(R) Blanco
1/2 part beer
1/4 part lemon juice
1/4 part simple syrup

Shake Tequila CAZADORES, simple syrup and lemon juice, pour into a shot drink glass and top with beer.

Beer and tequila together! That sounds delicious.
