"Patron Tequila" is a song by The Paradiso Girls featuring Lil Jon and female rapper Eve, intended to appear on their debut unreleased studio album, Crazy Horse. The song was released as the album's lead single in the United States on April 14, 2009. The Paradiso Girls have released The Remixes and The Remixes Part 2 to promote the song.

The song was written and produced by Keri Hilson, Lil Jon and T-Pain for Hilson's debut studio album In a Perfect World.... However, at the last minute before her album's turn in date, the song was given to the Paradiso Girls. The group recorded the song and made several alterations. Lil Jon's verse was omitted whilst T-Pain was replaced with US female rapper Eve.

The song was released in the US on April 14, 2009 as a CD Single and digital download, along with a release in Canada. The girls will be promoting the song throughout October 2009 in Canada.

The song was given mainly positive reviews. Many online sites created a "Who Did It Better?" poll, comparing the Paradiso version to the Hilson version. The song was named MuuMuse's "Summer Jam of 2009".

The music video, directed by Ray Kay, was shot over a three-day process in May 2009. It opens with a man purchasing Dr. Dre headphones from a Best Buy store after hearing the beat to Patron Tequila through them. Each member of the band is featured in a different location, flirting with the man: Aria Crescendo on a bus, Chelsea filling her car with gas, Kelly in the gas station shop, Lauren paying at the checkout and Shar sitting at the bus stop. The girls are also in the club where Eve raps along with Lil Jon. They also dance in front of a white backdrop. Clips are interspersed of the man dreaming about the girls being in the club but coming back to reality every now and again. The video premiered on Yahoo on June 15, 2009.

There is an alternative uncensored version of the video containing new scenes and the explicit version of the song.
