Joven tequila

Joven is a tequila variety that is not matured, but it is usually colored with caramel, syrups, or other additives. In its basic form, Joven is a type of Blanco tequila that has been tinted to attain light golden color and to give tequila a slightly smoother flavor.


This variety is commonly used in cocktails and mixed drinks, and it usually falls in the mixto category—meaning that is made with at least 51% of blue agave juices, while the rest can be produced with other types of agave.
