IT is the iconic little Sombrero familiar to millions of Brits who have a taste for Tequila.
Perched atop bottles of Sierra Tequila, the miniature Mexican headpiece may at first seem like a neat marketing ploy for the drinks brand.
And many may simply fling the plastic cap in the bin after throwing back a shot of the cactus-derived drink and think nothing of it.
But stop right there, amigo.
Because it turns out the sombrero – which comes in red and gold varieties – in fact has several handy uses.
Some people have been so gobsmacked they have even called the revelations "game changing".

Amazingly, the sombrero can be used as lime squeezer.
