Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey has stolen the show once more in his latest move - but it is with his own tequila brand rather than with his acting skills. The Wolf of Wall Street star and his wife, Camila McConaughey, have partnered up with TGI Fridays, lending their own brand Pantalones Organic Tequila to a sizzling summer event.

Their boozy drink is currently heavily featured in TGI Fridays Margarita Maynia - a new range of £5 Margaritas. The line-up of drinks includes Classic, Passion Fruit, Red Devil, Watermelon and The BFM (Best Fridays Margarita), giving guests a broad mix of flavour profiles at a great price point. But one of the most controversial flavours is probably the Pickle ‘Rita, which is made of heavily on-trend pickle juice, fresh lime juice and agave.

I was kindly invited to try the new range out - feeling apprehensive as I knew I would either really love or really hate the pickled concoction. I was actually completely blown away.

The flavour hit hard, but was surprisingly very refreshing. It left me wanting to try the others too so I also opted for a passion fruit.

Again, this drink completely wowed me, and the measure of tequila definitely wasn't tight. With an offer on, where you could get all six of the fantastic flavours in miniature bottles for just £15, it was hard to refuse. Even for one full size glass, it was just £5 - cheaper than most chain brand coffees, but it definitely comes with more of a kick!

The launch forms part of the first phase of a wider refresh of the TGI Friday's drinks menu, with further updates to the cocktail and bar offering set to follow in the coming months as the brand continues to evolve its drinks experience across the UK.

The offers, which were so good and only supposed to last for May, have now been extended into June meaning that people in the UK can start their summer with a good, fruity sip.

Andrew Chrisomalis, CEO of Pantalones Organic Tequila, said: “Fridays has always understood how to create a fun, social, high-energy drinking occasion, which makes this partnership a natural fit for Pantalones. Our tequila was created to be delicious and premium, without taking itself too seriously, and this new Margarita menu brings that spirit to life perfectly.

“From classic serves to playful twists like the Pickle ’Rita, we’re excited to see Pantalones poured across Fridays restaurants in the UK and enjoyed in exactly the way it was intended.”
