Tech billionaire Elon Musk wants to make his own tequila

JUST when you thought Elon Musk couldn’t get any more bizarre, he has decided to use his electric car company to launch a tequila label.

You’ll soon have a cool glass of Teslaquila to wash that down with, Elon. Picture: The Joe Rogan Experience.

TESLA fans, get ready for “Teslaquila.”

The electric car company submitted a trademark application for the word on Monday, suggesting a new Tesla branded tequila is in the works.

The form is visible on the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office site and claims that the name Teslaquila would be used for labelling “distilled agave liquor, distilled blue agave liquor”.

Tesla’s “intent to use” filing indicates it’s not using the word now but plans to at some point down the line, CNBC reported.

Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, also tweeted a link to the report. “Teslaquila coming soon …” he wrote on Friday.

The 47-year-old executive was quick to offer his millions of Twitter followers a mock-up of the “Teslaquila” logo, as well.

“Visual approximation,” he wrote when posting a photo.

Tesla did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Sunday afternoon.

It’s not the first time Musk has spoken about a Tesla tequila brand: He tweeted that Tesla “has gone completely and totally bankrupt” in an April Fool’s Day post.

“So bankrupt, you can’t believe it,” he added, before poking fun at himself.

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?
