Patron Tequila is continuing its collaboration with celebrity tattoo artist JonBoy to bring Cinco de Mayo to your doorstep through the Patron x JonBoy Margarita Collection Kit. Featuring Patron tequila and exclusive, original artwork by JonBoy, Patron is putting Cinco de Mayo in your hands and making it easy to celebrate your way, wherever you are.
The Patron x JonBoy partnership was inspired by the level of passion, dedication, and mastery of craft that both go to in order to achieve the perfect result, without cutting corners – whether that is through art with JonBoy’s tattoo designs or the Patron tequila production process. Personalization is what tattooing is all about—and it is how Patron encourages people to enjoy their margaritas. Consumers can customize their cocktails through their choice of unique JonBoy-designed cocktail toppers that feature everything from an artistic new take on Patron tequila’s bee logo to JonBoy’s signature script and more.
“Patron and JonBoy share a strong commitment to quality, craftsmanship and precision, which makes this a natural and exciting partnership for us,” said Chloe Lloyd-Jones, Vice President of Patron Tequila in North America. “Patron handcrafts its tequila the hard way – by hand using a meticulous, time-honored process, similar to the way JonBoy puts a painstaking level of detail and personalization into his incredible minimalistic tattoo designs and creations that continue to bring him worldwide acclaim. We’re thrilled to be partnering with JonBoy to create a custom Margarita kit to put Cinco de Mayo in your hands this year.”
The Patron x JonBoy Margarita Collection Kit was made in collaboration with Cocktail Courier and includes all the ingredients needed to create the Fresh Ink Smoked Margarita. The kit also comes with accessories, including stainless steel straws and coasters adorned with JonBoy’s exclusive designs. Additionally, each kit offers a selection of eight JonBoy designs to customize a cocktail topper.
“In designing the artwork for this kit, I was inspired by the history, heritage and handcrafted legacy of Patron as well as the timelessness of the margarita cocktail,” says JonBoy. “I love that people can customize their kit by selecting one of the designs I created for this collection and use it as a new way to feel connected to one another, especially during a time when we are all wanting connection more than ever. Our vision first came to life on February 22 through Patron’s Virtual Gift Wrapper for National Margarita Day, and this is a meaningful extension of that.”
The Patron x JonBoy Margarita Collection kit comes in “Classic” or “Deluxe,” and will be available for purchase for a limited time starting April 12th via Cocktail Courier:
- Classic serves 4 cocktails, retailing for $72.99
- Deluxe serves 6 cocktails, retailing for $96.99
