Next weekend, the bars will be over-flowing with Cinco de Mayo celebrants as well as Kentucky Derby revelers. To beat the crowds, why not gather a group of friends and create a do-it-yourself Cinco de Mayo celebration at home?
To get you started, C-Style has gathered some of the best spirit brands and accessories to make your party the talk of the barrio!
Milagro Tequila
Celebrate the Mexican day of freedom and democracy with fresh cocktails made with the ultimate spirit – tequila! There are many brands on the market but only one took home the Chairman’s Trophy for Silver Tequila at this year’s Ultimate Spirits Challenge – Milagro Silver. Create The Freshest Margarita at home by shaking up Milagro Silver, Agave Nectar and Fresh Lime Juice. For more information on where to purchase, visit www.milagrotequila.com.
Stoli Hot Vodka
To toast Cinco de Mayo with an alternative spirit, consider a bottle with a piquant kick: Stoli Hot. Stoli Hot offers a slight fiery sensation of jalapeno peppers that, when mixed into cocktails, delivers savory spicy notes. The fun jalapeno images on the bottle and peppery taste are a perfect way to celebrate this Mexican holiday. For cocktail inspiration, visit www.stoli.com.
