Cinco de Mayo!

Contrary to popular American belief, Drinko Cinco de Mayo is not just a day to celebrate margaritas and Mexican beer. To make a long story short, the date is observed to commemorate the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. That being said, we have provided you with an original Top Shelf margarita recipe in honor of the real reason we Americans celebrate this regional Mexican holiday...to drink margaritas and Mexican beer.

The Original Top Shelf Margarita

Ingredients:

First and most importantly: Tequila (preferably the good stuff)

Frozen limeade

Ice...obviously

Sprite (probably didn't see that coming)

 Salt

Limes

In blender combine 2 cans frozen limeade, 2 to 3 handfuls ice, tequila (depending on how exciting you would like your Cinco de Mayo to be, it can vary from none to however strong you would like to make it. We recommend starting out with 2 to 3 shots, you can always add more. ), and 2 to 3 cups Sprite.

Blend.

Add salt and limes for garnish.

Enjoy.

Quick, simple, and delicious!

Have a great and safe Drinko Cinco de Mayo!
