Few movie moments have captured the feeling of collective joy quite like the iconic "Midnight Margaritas" scene from the 1998 cult classic Practical Magic, where the Owens women gather in their kitchen to dance, laugh, and raise a glass together when the clock strikes midnight. Now, as fans 21+ prepare to see Practical Magic 2 in theaters, they can recreate this beloved ritual with the Astral Midnight Margarita, made with Astral Tequila Blanco, coconut, and fresh lime juice, ready to be blended up whenever the night calls for a little extra magic.
"The 'Midnight Margaritas' tradition embodies the same energy that's at the heart of Astral Tequila: the best nights are made brighter by the people you share them with, especially with an Astral Midnight Margarita in-hand," said Jenn Rapp, Director, Portfolio Tequila & Mezcal at Diageo North America. "With its agave-forward, citrus profile, Astral brightens every cocktail, making it the perfect tequila for moments of connection."
Keeping the blenders whirring and the sisterly magic flowing, Astral is premiering "It's Midnight Somewhere," a five-part social microdrama starring real-life sisters, models, and television personalities Brooks and Grace Ann Nader. Told through reality TV-inspired confessionals, the series follows the sisterly duo as an evening of Astral Midnight Margarita-making takes an unexpected turn, sending them on a mysterious adventure filled with humor, twists, and sisterly shenanigans.
"Honestly, this felt very on brand for us," said Brooks and Grace Ann Nader. "Sisters, Astral Midnight Margaritas, a little harmless chaos, and quoting Practical Magic all night? Say less! We had the best time bringing 'It's Midnight Somewhere' to life, making each other laugh, and paying homage to a movie that's all about the importance of sisterhood."
