Some of our best memories — or lack thereof — stem from tequila.

In keeping with the trend, we’re amped for Mayahuel, the new Mexican bar and restaurant from the East 6th Street gang (Death & Co, The Bourgeois Pig).

We got the scoop from co-owner Phil Ward — and maybe a little too much free high-end mezcal.

No body shots made the cut (it’s tequila way too nice for that kind of behavior).

Mayahuel, 304 East 6th Street, between First and Second Avenues.

Thirsty for more? Everyone from lonesome cowpokes to the local sheriff will be saddling up to the bar at Dutch Kills, a 19th-century-style saloon in the hinterlands of Long Island City. It’s finally opening tonight (9 p.m.!) with spirits, cocktails over hand-cut ice, and cold brews on tap — served from a large oak bar and totaled on a 1913 model cash register. Neighborhood fave Sage General Store provides the organic pub fare. Go on and mosey along. Dutch Kills, 27-24 Jackson Avenue, at Dutch Kills Street, Long Island City (718-383-2724).
