Which plant is the base ingredientof 'tequila'?

Tequila is made from the Blue Agave, a member of the lily family often mistaken for a cactus. The plant requires 8-12 years before reaching maturity. The agave is then harvested for the "Pina", basically the base / core, which when the stalks are cut away looks like the base of a pineapple. The Pina is cooked and juiced. The juices are then fermented and distilled twice. You now have 100% Blue Agave Silver / Platinum or Plata tequila (All mean the same thing.)


Does tequila break down into sugar?

Tequila is made from the blue agave plant, which contains natural sugars. During the fermentation process, these sugars are converted into alcohol, and tequila itself does not break down into sugar after production. Instead, it typically has low sugar content, especially when compared to sugary mixers or flavored spirits. Therefore, while tequila starts with sugars, it doesn't convert back to sugar in the body.
