[Sca-cooks] Tequilla and Sangria - period?

[Dan Phelps]

Regards sangria I've a rather on the cusp reference to a Spanish wine punch
made with red wine, apples, sugar and lemons.  Regards tequilla, don't think
it is but pulqua (sic) is probably period... It's a peasant/rural Mexican
drink that has the taste and mouth feel of alcoholic snot.

Perhaps Marcus the Vintner, if he is still around in the Outlands, can give
you more info.

Hi, all--

There's a bit of a question on the Outlands list about tequilla and sangria.
Any info on when and where they might have been first consumed in Europe? I
checked the Flora-thingy, but could find only Stefan's reference to
commercial production of tequilla being 1785.
