They even have some fun, specialty cocktails available this month that we highly recommend!

Mango Habanero Margarita: This sweet and spicy cocktail combines Milagro Reposado Tequila, infused with a habanero pepper in-house for 10 days, with mango puree, sweet and sour mix and fresh lime juice. Infusing the tequila with the habanero gives this drink a smooth, smokier flavor than a typical house tequila would.

Absolut Pear-A-Dise: The Absolut Pear-A-Dise is Cantina’s newest special cocktail, combining Anjou pear infused vodka with fresh lime juice, soda water and a lime wedge. It’s light and refreshing, and great for the soon-to-be spring days.

Pair these cocktails with a customer favorite – Peruvian Shrimp Tacos. Made with lightly fried shrimp and topped with coleslaw and a sweet sesame chili sauce, you won’t be disappointed with this pick.
