"Azul Tequila" is a Mexican telenovela. The 80-episode serial was produced for TV Azteca by the celebrity couple Christian Bach and Humberto Zurita in conjunction with Humberto's brother Gerardo under their production company ZUBA Producciones.

With an approximate cost of $5,000,000 United States dollars, this production was praised by the critics, but was not a great success with the Mexican audience although it was in Europe and Asia, Malaysia and Thailand. One of the reasons for its lower rating was that it was broadcasted at the same time as "El privilegio de amar", the most successful telenovela of rival network Televisa that year. This was the first telenovela for Ursula Pratts with TV Azteca, and also the first in 10 years after "Monte Calvario" in 1988.
