Cinco de Mayo is next Tuesday!
Don’t miss your chance to celebrate, even if it is from the comfort of your own home.
A few tips from your A.COMPANIE event planning team to make your tabletop or buffet festive and fun…
- Tequila tasting: a sipper of three tequilas to pair with your chips and salsa, tacos and tamales. During your weekend shopping trip, check the shelves for these…
Alipus San Andres Mexcal Artesanal, Ocho Plata Tequila, Codigo 1530 Tequila Reposado
- Mix up your own guacamole with fresh avocados
- Use a serape as a table runner and plant a few fresh herbs as your centerpieces. Cilantro, mint, basil are all great garnishes or finishing touches to a Cinco de Mayo cocktail or appetizer. No serape, no problem…lace over a vibrant fabric or construction paper could add the right amount of spice!
- A simple way to enhance your taco buffet is to add bowls of whole limes, jalapeños, oranges, pineapple. Fresh fruit that you can munch on as snacks later in the week or use as a cocktail garnish that will act as a festive display this Tuesday.
