Best Tequila for Cinco de Mayo
The fifth of May
Is but a few days away.
But whether you stay or party away,
you'll want only the best bottles to have a true partay!
That’s right, it’s spring which means that Cinco de Mayo is just around the corner! For those interested in a quick history fact, Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in the good ol’ US of A to commemorate a large battle over the French in the Battle of Puebla in 1862. While not such a widely celebrated day in Mexico, the holiday is big in the Land of Opportunity among Mexican Americans to celebrate its culture and heritage. Of course, what better way to commemorate than with some good ol’ fashioned tequila? Let’s jump right in and rediscover some tequila classics and uncover some gems you may have missed during this long, rainy/snowy winter. It’s party time!
We’ll split these up into sippers and mixers. Whether you prefer a luxurious and rich mezcal or you just want something to mix with your Coke, we have you covered at Sip Whiskey. Grab some of these for your Cinco de Mayo party, give one to a friend, or treat yourself to a special bottle. Sippers can be mixers and mixers can be sippers - no judging here.
