Cinco de Mayo may be celebrated differently this year, but don’t miss out on the music, hoopla and tequila. Grab a small group of friends and celebrate socially distanced at home with a few delicious cocktails. Big Chill Surf Cantina shared with us a recipe for Cantina’s Coco-Rita, a tasty margarita with coconut, Cointreau and lime juice that is perfect for any Cinco de Mayo celebration.

If you don’t feel confident about your bartending skills, just head to the Cantina in Rehoboth Beach and pop a squat at the bar. The margarita pairs perfectly with one of Taco Reho’s fresh tacos.
