Cinco de Mayo is a pretty big deal in history, but do you know why?  May 5th commemorates the Mexican Army's improbable defeat of French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
 
We often have “taco night” at our house and Mark makes the best margaritas.  Here’s one of his fun recipes using our Lucky Lime & Sea Salt Clover honey…enjoy!
 
     1 oz. Don Julio Anejo Tequila
     1 oz. Cointreau
     1 oz. Fresh Lime Juice
     1 oz. Lucky Lime & Sea Salt Clover Honey
 
Rim the margarita glass using the Lucky Lime & Sea Salt Clover Honey and salt.

If you are feeling adventurous, use our Fiery Sweet Mesquite Honey in place of the Lucky Lime & Sea Salt Clover Honey.  It's amazing, too!
 
Tip for using honey in cocktails: When a cocktail recipe calls for ice, it works best to use a shaker to mix honey with alcohol BEFORE adding ice into the mix.  This method incorporates the honey consistently throughout the cocktail.
