Tequila Blackout

A spicy Mentawai edit with a naaasty kick.

Words by Coral McDuffee

Reading Time: < 1 minutes

Crystal blue monstrosities.

Tequila is magic.

Has more of a stimulating effect than most booze.

How so?

Them potent agave sugarz.

The edit “TEQUILA BLACKOUT” feels like all the best parts of a Tequila shot—A steep takeoff, euphoric headrush, and sudden enhancement of all visual surroundings.

With romantic lines and vivid colors, Laura Coviella’s cinematic piece encapsulates all the highs before the ultimate low.
