In a recent interview with Esto en Linea, World No. 12 Emma Raducanu admitted that she "doesn't really drink" any kind of alcoholic beverage. The Brit described herself as a "boring person" and revealed that she "has never had tequila" in her life.

Despite not being that familiar with tequila, Raducanu stated that she recently consumed a version of margarita, a cocktail that consists of tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice. The Brit said she couldn't tell the difference since she'd never had tequila before

¿Tequila, margarita? 🤔🎾

“Well, actually I don’t really drink. I’m kind of boring. But yesterday, girls gave me a version of margarita. So, I didn’t know if it was real or not because I’ve never had tequila before. So I can’t really taste the difference (laughs)," said Raducanu.

Raducanu was asked to reveal the name of her "favorite drink" that she as an athlete likes to consume the most. However, the 19-year-old claimed that she doesn't drink any alcoholic beverages, even on rare occasions.

For the uninformed, tequila is a distilled beverage, made from the blue agave plant that is found in the Jaliscan Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Tequila is a really famous drink in Mexico.

Only the finest Blue Agave from the highlands of Jalisco used. The agave in this region is more fruity, floral, and naturally sweeter. Tastes so good once cooked!

Raducanu had a disappointing run at the Australian Open 2022 as she suffered a second-round exit at the hands of Danka Kovinic. The Montenegro player battled past her in three sets, knocking her out of the Grand Slam.

Danka Kovinic wins 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 to become the first player from Montenegro to reach the third round of a Grand Slam.

Following her loss at the Happy Slam, Raducanu traveled to Singapore along with her father, Ian Raducanu, and practiced at the Tanglin Club. There, she also met the Minister for Culture, Community, and Youth of the Singapore government, Edwin Tong, and discussed the development of "youth tennis" in the nation.
