Juicy Mango Mocktails

Happy Cinco de Mayo, everyone! And if you’re like most silly Americans - Happy Cinco de Drinko! Not around here, though! More like Cinco de Mellow, as I am super tired from my whirlwind day trip yesterday to the LA Vegan Beer & Food Fest.

Besides, while it does commemorate Mexico’s victory over France in 1862, it’s really just a minor holiday in Mexico, so why do we make such a big deal of it in the States? It is a mystery. Any excuse for tequila, I suppose.

For me, it was an excuse to make my favorite, mostly raw, totally vegan Taco Wraps. I had to pick up the Pug from my Mom’s house, so we decided to make said favorite tacos & wash them down with Juicy Mango Margarita Mocktails. Good plan!
