A Cinco de Mayo Party for Two

A Cinco de Mayo Party for Two

Its time to start planning fun festivities with your loved one to share an intimate celebration in honor of Cinco de Mayo. You can have a blast creating an enticing tablescape with bold beautiful colored flowers, plates and glasses of all different colors, an array of flavorful food choices and seductive candlelight to set the mood. Throw in a pinata for some blindfold fun, and get creative with your pitcher of margaritas – there are so many wonderful flavors why go for the classic version tonight?

Here are a few recipes we hope will inspire your Cinco de Mayo Menu –  just click on the titles to be taken to each recipe. For a full day of celebration choose your favorite margarita recipe and be sure to make a great guacamole and salsa. Next choose a main course, and a dessert if you think you’ll have room. Or, you could opt to do a few smaller items to keep things light – perhaps a surf and turf feast with the shrimp tacos and gourmet arrechera served with salsa on the side and your favorite margarita.
