I never pass up an opportunity to decorate and celebrate an occasion. I took three years of Spanish in high school and a half a semester in college before I dropped the class because I was lost. So I feel like I’m one with the Mexican culture and ready to celebrate.

My daughter may or may not have told me “the whitest thing I’ve ever done was putting flowers in an Old El Paso enchilada sauce can for Cinco de Mayo”.

Since I’ve been on the Keto train, I wanted a low-carb margarita option to enjoy on Cinco de Mayo. I have a pretty good recipe to share with you below.

These are the special ingredients to keeping it low-carb. Topo Chico, Zevia lemon-lime mixer and lime juice added to your favorite tequila make a pretty darn good Keto-friendly margarita. Dress up the rim of a margarita glass with salt or Tajin and you’ve got a party.

Salud! (See, three and a half years of my life put to good use,)

Cheerful straws for those that prefer aqua.

Whether you celebrate the day with tequila or tacos, enjoy! I don’t know the Spanish word for enjoy. They must have covered that after I dropped out of the class.
