Whether you’re opting for shots or a classic margarita, there’s a chance to be intentional in supporting Black (and women) led brands as you make a toast to the holiday. From partnerships to full ownership, the wine and spirits industry is being dominated by the ladies, and when it comes to that good ol’ agave, they’ve got you covered.
There’s even something if you choose to go the alcohol-free route, as we don’t discriminate over here.
Check out these MadameNoire-approved tequila brands to add to your bar in honor of National Tequila Day (July 24).

1. Anteel Tequila
As the first Black woman to co-own and lead a tequila company, Nayana Ferguson, alongside her husband Don, launched Anteel Tequila with a mission rooted in resilience.
Moreover, Nayana, a two-time cancer survivor, wanted to create a brand that she could enjoy both responsibly and proudly. Recently, the company rebranded with an all-new logo and packaging design to embody the brand’s dynamic and forward-thinking ethos.
“We are excited to unveil the new look and feel of Anteel Tequila, which reflects our journey of innovation and excellence,” said Nayana in an official statement. “This rebrand is not just a visual change, but a celebration of our achievements and our commitment to delivering exceptional tequila to our community.”
