Cinco de Mayo is usually that time of year in which you head to your favorite Mexican restaurant and order a round of margaritas, but most Americans will have to adjust their celebration this year. However, it doesn’t mean that you have to abandon your plans to commemorate the day that the Mexican army defeated French soldiers during the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

Whether you are having a solo soirée, or plan to enjoy a drink while social distancing with your housemates, consider making one of these tasty margarita recipes for your Cinco de Mayo celebration.
