Is it filled with booze, or candy? You go ahead and whack first....we've got your back.
Everyone celebrates Cinco de Mayo in different ways, but most of them involve drinking (heavily). Start with a bucket of Tequila, chips and salsa, and some mariachi music. Add a pinata, a blindfold and a stick and you've got at least three hours of fun before someone has to go to the hospital. This year, however you celebrate, take these tasty, Tequila based cocktails and shots into consideration.

Cadillac Margarita
If you're going to have a margarita, why bother having anything less than the best? Go with the Cadillac Margarita, which has all the traditional ingredients plus a floated shot of Grand Marnier and a squeeze of orange juice. We hear Maya's on Rainer Ave. makes a killer one that hits the spot on a hot summer night.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz Tequila
3 oz Sweet and sour
3/4 oz Triple sec
3/4 oz Lime juice
Float Grand Marnier
