There’s a lot to like about Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. In fact, polls have shown that nearly half of Americans want him to run for president. It’s not just his on screen persona, but his laid back, family first, fun guy feel that make us believe this is an actor we’d like to have as a friend. Add to that the fact that this friend also boasts his own multi-award winning tequila company, Teremana, and you’ve got the party started.
Unfortunately, while most of us are unlikely to be added to his list of contacts, Teremana does stand for connection and given that this is the holiday season and he’s in the spirit, he's performing something of a miracle.
This weekend in Los Angeles (November 30th through Friday, December 1st) and Tuesday, December 12th through Wednesday, December 13th in New York City, The Rock is inviting all of his wannabe friends to The Mana Holiday House where the tequila will be flowing. Grab a cocktail, learn how to make your own, indulge in a unique tequila experience and taste some of the foods he enjoys as “cheat meals.” And best of all, because he seems to be the man we all believe he is, it’s free. All you have to do is reserve a ticket HERE.
If you can’t make the event, check out the Mana Holiday House online. There’s a virtual experience which includes cocktail recipes, bartending tips and swag.
So grab a glass and toast to friends new and old (as well as those who are so cool we feel like we know them) and spread the mana.
