Hola! Como estas? Happy Cinco de Mayo! My Spanish is definitely limited but I love any excuse for a margarita. In Vancouver a good Mexican joint is tough to find but here are a couple I really enjoy to help you celebrate. Both are always happening spots and offer up delicious margaritas!

Lolitas
(A small space great for late nights!)
1326 Davie St.
Vancouver BC
(604) 696-9996
open daily 11am to 2am

Las Margaritas
(One of the best patios in Vancouver!)
1999 W.4th Ave
Vancouver BC
(604) 734-7117
open from 1130am til around 10 or 11pm

And if you would rather serve up your own fiesta my new fave is the beer-garita!

Beer-garita

1 small can of limeade
4-6 oz (or more up to you!) Tequila
3 beers (Coronas are a great choice)
1 lime
ice
salt

Mix together the limeade, tequila, and beer. Salt the rim of your glass by rubbing a lime wedge around the lip of the glass, then dip the lip of the glass into some salt on a plate. Next step if you want your beer-garita blended is to place the mix in a blender with ice and blast off! Or you can simply pour the mix into your salted rim glass over ice. Garnish with a lime wedge and party-on!
