Happy Thirsty Thursday! With Cinco De Mayo coming up this weekend, I absolutely had to drop a margarita on you. Do you guys go out and party on Cinco De Mayo? Or make tacos at home with the family, or just to town on a big bowl of guacamole? I am always good for at least a bowl of guacamole and some margaritas!

And these are the way that I am liking my drinks lately- with no sugar. I am finding that I do best drinking my booze less sweet, so skinny it is! Plus we don’t even need a simple syrup because of the MANGO!! They are so bountiful at the grocery store, so it is impossible not to enjoy cooking and baking and drinking with them right now.

And please don’t get scared by the coconut part of this- I added coconut water because it has that slight natural sweetness and I love the idea that it is full of electrolytes that are doing great things for me and hopefully counteracting all the naughty parts of drinking cocktails.
