Margaritas are an obvious choice for your Cinco de Mayo cocktails. But at Spirit Hub, we live uncommonly. Viejo Indecente swaps tequila for craft mezcal in this unique Cinco de Mayo recipe. Their sweet and herbal Espandin is accentuated by Royal Rose’s Natural Organic Simple Syrup, Strongwater Mountain Elixirs’ Orange Bitters, and fresh juices.
