Since Cinco de Mayo is this weekend. We’re also sharing some cocktails from taco nights past. Our margarita glasses get a lot of use.
Don't even think about salting the glass
Taco night is all right with me
Now this is how to eat fruit
It's sink or swim time little fruits

That’s … a lot of drinking, guys. 🙂
And it all looks so good.
Now you are making me thirsty – ha!
What a terrific collection of adult beverages. 😀
Awesome round up! I have those flame dishes too. They are so fun. It is perculiar how similar our blogs are, yet how different. Our cocktail and round up will be up in the morning. I think you are going to really like this one.
BTW, really diggin’ your margarita glasses. I have a new found love for tequila and margaritas, so perhaps I will find some new ones.
Oh I can’t wait! You have such fun drinks and food. I love stopping by.
Tempting me again! with all that blood orange flavour I could almost forget how much booze is in these! Great round up again!
Excellent – I love those blue rimmed cocktail glasses too!
A cool blood orange cocktail would be just the right thing today around 5ish?
Really need to buy a bottle of tequila!
Love it. Your cocktail roundups always encourage me to have a secret happy at work that day!
Settling with either one is OK with me.
Love the cocktails – I have never turned down a good margarita. Never.
I’ll take one of each — hold the scorpion.
Yay!! Cinco de Mayo.. and the perfect round up of drinks! I’d better start shopping for the ingredients!
A great lead in to the Cinco de Mayo, Greg. LOVE the colour of this cocktail and the glass is very pretty too. Blood orange is indeed a wonderful fruit and I’m certain this would make a very tasty cocktail. How come no salt on the rim? This might be delicious with the lime chili salt I have from Just a Pinch!
Good tequila needs no lime. Good margaritas need no salt. But I’ll never know if you just must have it…
That is a fantastic line up, i do not know what Cinco de Mayo is but That Peach Margarita ..
oo la la! .. and sangria, i might make that this afternoon actually, i know it is a thursday, but WHATEVER! celi
I remember seeing the white sangria post last year, and wanting to make it, so thanks for the reminder. (The orange margarita looks pretty darn good, too!)
Bloody good margarita! These drinks are making me thirsty …….
This post made me thirsty! Sangritas, I gotta make those soon.
Salud!
Love this recipe. Blood orange is the best.
Fabulous roundup — you have been busy! But… no salt??
No salt!
And I’ll take one of each of these too. It’s Cinco de Mayo after all! 😉
All these great drinks in one post. I need to bookmark this one. Margaritas are my favorite drink.
Lovely cocktails, hope you didn’t drink them all in one night ;0)
I love blood orange in cocktails and this looks great!
Oh yes, bookmarked this post. Now I got my summer deck drinks line up all in one spot, thank you very much!
I’ve never had a blood orange margarita but have had the other kinds here! I’m with you on the no salt.
