    Celebrating Cinco de Mayo with Sauza® Tequila

    Thanks to Sauza® Tequila, I was able to pull together a “fiesta-worthy” celebration with a few close friends.  It was complete with Mexican-inspired serving pieces, awesome food, and of course… TEQUILA!

    This post has been paid for by Sauza® Tequila.  All opinions expressed are my own.

    It’s no secret that I love getting together with friends, margaritas and of course, good food.  When I was invited to host a Cinco de Mayo party with some of my closest friends… of course I said yes!

    I’ve learned over the years that when hosting a party, serving food and drinks in big batches makes things a WHOLE lot easier.  Besides, I’d rather be a part of the festivities than behind the scenes preparing food and mixing cocktails.  This get-together was a breeze because everything was made in batches and ready to eat and drink as soon as my friends arrived.

    So for this get-together, I made a pitcher full of margaritas with Sauza® Tequila so I wouldn’t have to spend a lot of time making each cocktail individually.  I also made a big batch of my Slow Cooker Mexican Shredded Beef with all of the fixings for the ultimate tacos and nachos.  Easy peasy!

    Made with 100 percent blue weber agave, Sauza® Signature Blue Silver Tequila is perfect for authentic pitcher-style margaritas to share with friends… which means less work for me and more time to enjoy the party!

    This party was a cinch to throw together!  By making the margaritas and shredded Mexican beef in big batches, all I really had to do was slice and dice the toppings for the tacos and nachos.  My favorites are cheese, tomatoes, black olives, lettuce and onions.

    I also served guacamole and salsa… the perfect Mexican fiesta!

    Happy Cinco de Mayo and I hope these easy (and delicious) recipes inspire you to throw a fiesta of your own!

    As always, please drink responsibly.
