Teslaquila, the Tesla-branded liquor born out of Elon Musk’s April Fool’s joke, is now a real product available on the Tesla website.
The “small-batch premium 100% de agave tequila añejo” will set you back $250.

If there is one thing we should always remember about Elon Musk, is that we should always take him seriously.
Tesla now lists Tesla Tequila (a.k.a. “Teslaquila”) on its website. The tequila — described as a “small-batch premium 100% de agave tequila añejo made from sustainably sourced highland and lowland agaves,” is presented in a handblown glass bottle shaped in the electric charge symbol. The Tequila, produced by Nosotros Tequila, is aged in French oak barrels, giving it “a dry fruit and light vanilla nose with a balanced cinnamon pepper finish.” Premium, we said. And the price tag is premium too, the 750mL bottle costs $250. The good news is that shipping costs are included.
Teslaquila first appeared in April 2018 when Elon Musk tweeted a photo of himself passed out against a Tesla Model 3 “surrounded by “Teslaquilla” bottles, the tracks of dried tears still visible on his cheeks.” In the photo, Musk is holding a cardboard sign that reads “bankwupt.”
Elon was found passed out against a Tesla Model 3, surrounded by "Teslaquilla" bottles, the tracks of dried tears still visible on his cheeks.
This is not a forward-looking statement, because, obviously, what's the point?
