Blood Orange Margaritas and Cinco de Mayo

I don’t know about y’all, but this family is all about Taco Tuesdays. Well, we could actually eat tacos or any type of Mexican cuisine 7 days a week. It is no wonder that we will be celebrating Cinco de Mayo. Chips, salsa, guacamole, tacos, and fajitas are on the menu. For the adults though, a margarita perfect for any summer night outside of Cinco de Mayo. Blood Orange Margaritas offer more flavor than your typical margarita.

How can you have a fiesta without a cute outfit? This swing top is not only cute, but oh so comfy! Since we are planning to celebrate Cinco de Mayo at the house, I am wearing this top with black athletic pants. You can pair this swing top with a fun pair of cut off jean shorts, a pair of flairs or skinny jeans. You will be ready for any type of affair with this ‘Tacos and Tequila’ swing top! If you are looking for that comfortable and cute outfit to celebrate Cinco de Mayo in, well here you go! And doesn’t it look cute with Blood Orange Margaritas?

Blood Orange Margaritas

Now back to those margaritas. This margarita is so good! If you love a good margarita, then you want to keep this recipe in your back pocket. As I mentioned above, it is both sweet and tangy. The added blood orange juice gives it that something extra that the ordinary strawberry margarita doesn’t offer.
