Tila Tequila is a Singapore-born singer, model, and television personality. She’s modeled for Maxim, Stuff, and Penthouse and was the star of her own MTV reality show A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila.
The Tila Tequila cocktail is inspired by a famous drink from her home country of Singapore (the Singapore Sling) with some slight modifications to make it a bit more tequila-friendly. It’s a deliciously potent drink that her fans can admire - sweet on the palette and easy on the eyes.
