Low-Calorie Cocktail Recipes for Cinco de Mayo

Ready for Cinco de Mayo?

 Cinco de Mayo is fast approaching and what better way to celebrate than with a few festive drinks? But wait! Did you know that one regular Margarita is over 600 calories per serving? Using Cascade Ice's skinny cocktail mixers, we can knock that down to just around 55.

Below are a few festive drink recipes we recommend mixing up for Cinco de Mayo. Low-cal, but full of flavor!


In a mixer, mix the juice of 2 lime wedges with 1 1Ž2 oz of Tequila. Add 8oz of Cascade Ice Margarita Mixer. Shake or stir and pour contents into your favorite margarita glass with a salted rim. Garnish with a lime wheel for a festive touch!


Skinny Daquiri
Not a fan of tequila? No problem! Try a delicious Skinny Daiquiri. To create this sweet treat, add 1 1Ž2 cups of ice and 1 1Ž2 cups frozen strawberries into your blender. Pour in 8oz Cascade Ice Zero-Calorie Wild Berry Sparking Water and your choice of rum. Blend until smooth. Pour into a chilled glass and garnish with fresh fruit.
