Blanco for fresh citrus, Reposado for oak, Añejo for a stirred drink
For a first Teremana Margarita or Paloma, choose Blanco if you want the unaged style. Choose Reposado if you want the maker’s oak-and-vanilla notes in the drink. Añejo is the natural choice for Teremana’s Old Fashioned, where its oak character works with agave nectar and bitters in a stirred drink.
All three covered US expressions are 40% ABV / 80 proof. The difference is maturation: Blanco is unaged, Reposado has a three-month minimum in American whiskey barrels, and Añejo a 12-month minimum. See the full bottle comparison and production method.
Three starting points
Make a drink that leaves room for the tequila
A simple Teremana Margarita
Use 60 mL (2 US fl oz) Blanco or Reposado, 30 mL (1 US fl oz) fresh lime juice and 15 mL (½ US fl oz) agave nectar. Shake with ice, then strain over fresh ice. These are rounded metric measures based on Teremana’s traditional Margarita formula. Lime acidity and nectar sweetness vary, so adjust the sweetener to your taste.
Teremana’s grapefruit Paloma
Use 60 mL (2 US fl oz) Blanco, 30 mL (1 US fl oz) grapefruit juice, about 22 mL (¾ US fl oz) lime juice and 15 mL (½ US fl oz) simple syrup. Combine these ingredients and a pinch of salt in a highball glass over ice. Top with club soda and stir gently. This follows the maker’s Mana Paloma proportions with rounded metric measures. Start with less syrup if your grapefruit juice is already sweetened.
Añejo Old Fashioned
Use 60 mL (2 US fl oz) Teremana Añejo, a small barspoon of agave nectar and two dashes of your preferred orange or aromatic bitters. Stir with ice and strain over a large cube; add an orange peel. Start lightly with the nectar, then adjust. Teremana also gives a sweeter maple variation in its recipe.
Keep your first serve simple when deciding between expressions. A heavily sweetened or strongly flavored drink makes it harder to judge the difference you are paying for.

For a small gathering
Measure the base; add ice when you serve
For four Margaritas at the measures above, combine 240 mL tequila, 120 mL fresh lime juice and 60 mL agave nectar. Chill the mixture, then shake one quarter of the base (105 mL) with ice for each drink just before serving. Mixing the ingredients ahead does not supply the dilution that shaking normally adds.
A 750 mL bottle supplies twelve 60 mL tequila portions, leaving 30 mL. Plan your number of serves from the measured pour; mixer volume and melting ice do not change how much tequila each glass contains. For Palomas, add the soda in each glass so it stays lively.

Quick answers
Questions, answered
Which Teremana tequila should I buy for a Margarita?
Teremana Blanco is the straightforward unaged choice for a fresh citrus Margarita. Reposado is an alternative if you want its oak-and-vanilla style. Both are 40% ABV in the US bottles covered here, and the brand gives a traditional Margarita recipe using either.
Can I use Teremana Añejo in a cocktail?
Yes. Teremana uses Añejo in its Old Fashioned recipe with agave nectar and bitters. Its longer barrel maturation suits a stirred drink where you want oak character; you can also use it in other cocktails according to your preference.
How many cocktails can I make from a 750 mL Teremana bottle?
A 750 mL bottle of Teremana makes twelve cocktails using 60 mL of tequila each, with 30 mL left. Smaller or larger spirit measures change that count.
Can I prepare Teremana Margaritas ahead of time?
Yes. You can measure and chill the Teremana Margarita mixture of tequila, fresh lime juice and agave nectar ahead. Shake each portion with ice before serving to add the normal chilling and dilution; taste the fresh lime mixture before serving.
