Tequila is the national drink of Mexico and is known as the soul of the country.
In the third century, the Indian civilization living in the Central American region had already discovered the technology of fermentation and brewing, and they used any available source of sugar in their lives to make alcohol, and the agave, which is not low in sugar and juicy, naturally became the raw material for making alcohol. Pulque is made from fermented agave juice.
Tequila remained a purely fermented spirit until the Spanish conquistadors across the Atlantic brought distillation to the New World. Then they tried to increase the alcohol content of pulque by distillation, and distilled spirits made from agave were created. As this new product succeeded in replacing wine, it became heavily consumed by these colonizers and earned the name Mezcal wine.
