    I don’t usually celebrate Cinco de Mayo unless I use it as an excuse to make Mexican food!. Tequila is not one of my favorite spirits, but I love berries , so if U made one of these cocktails it would be the one with strawberries in it.

    I don’t usually celebrate Cinco de Mayo. I always love to watch others Celebrate it though. I used to live in Chicago Suburb and alot of mmy friends used to celebrate it,. Now i moved south East more in the rural farmland area in a small town of 4000 people and no one celebrates it! Anyhow I would enjoy the Cointreau Spiced Strawberry Margarita Recipe the best out of the cocktails shown… Thank you for sharing these awesome cocktail recipes. :O)~~~~

  3. I can’t believe that Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner already. I would love to make the Cointreau Margarita Mule Recipe that sounds really good and something that I have never tried thank you for sharing these recipes.

  4. I don’t think I’ve had a cocktail in over 30 years. My last time I had 2 long island ice teas 22 oz. each and they said I was eating piopcorn off the parking lot! 🙂
