With Cinco de Mayo quickly approaching – it’s time to whip up your favorite cocktails. I love it when a “holiday” presents itself with food and/or cocktails – especially when the “holiday” is on the weekend. Cinco de Mayo is PERFECT for you because it’s on Sunday! I am sharing with you the perfect recipes to celebrate this tequila-filled holiday.
