Ahh Cinco de Mayo – what other man would you rather celebrate with besides Jose Cuervo? Just in time for any type of Cinco de Mayo festivities, try out the new Jose Cuervo Authentic Pomegranate Margarita and Jose Cuervo Authentic Mango Margarita blends! Both of these blend Jose Cuervo Gold® and the fresh flavor fusion of pomegranate and mango, creating pure margarita perfection. And because both the Pomegranate and Mango Margaritas come in lightweight plastic bottles, they are ready to serve (or drink) anywhere!
Also, in the spirit of the holiday and to ensure you make the most out of your Cinco de Mayo – here are some recipes courtesy of my man Jose:
