A sip of good tequila and a sip of sangrita is about the perfect pairing. Google for recipes, my family has a great one but I am not at liberty to disclose it.
As for tequilas, there have been a few good ones mentioned. What I drink the most these days is Chamucos reposado, also like the various Don Julio's, Cazadores etc.
