Cinco De Mayo Warm up

 

Ready or not, Cinco de Mayo is two weeks away!

The streets of Old Town are already busy with the preparation of this annul fiesta.  The festivities begin Saturday April 30th and May 1st with a celebration your entire family can enjoy. The main stage located outside of Café Coyote will be sponsored by Corona beer and will feature live bands and entertainment to dance the night away.

 

Thursday, May 5th will be a party for all the adults 21 years and older. Café Coyote is definitely the best place to be at this special day. We have over 600 seats to accommodate our guest and we count with 3 full service bars and satellite bars that will make your experience enjoyable and relaxing.

 

Join me tonight for our featured cocktail of the week, the tequila Cilantro Mojito.

This drink is similar to the rum mojito but is substituted with El Jimador, 100 % agave tequila and cilantro instead of mint leaves. This drink is very refreshing and will have you wanting another.

 

I will also be educating our patrons on tequila, mezcal, Don Cuco Sotol and Bacanora.

All the above are Mexican regional spirits from agave or close related plants native to Mexico. Don’t hesitate! Happy hour is until 6:00p.m. and I will gladly make you one of my signature drinks with your favorite tequila.

 

Salud!

El Jimador  (The Harvester)

There is something about April that I absolutely love: spring break, people’s positive attitude, and the right climate conditions to sit down and relax with a nice cold margarita or a unique-complex beer. We are almost in the middle of the month and I am anxious to receive the thousands of people that visit our lovely restaurant for our annual Cinco de Mayo Fiesta. Even though there is always a fiesta at Café Coyote, Cinco de Mayo is a day that brings out the Mexican out of everyone that joins us.

The party begins early this year.  On Saturday, April 30th and Sunday April 31, we kick off the celebration with our annual Old Town Fiesta.  Festivities and entertainment for the entire family will be provided at no cost for everyone to enjoy. On the actual 5TH of May, we get to leave the young ones at home for a grown up fiesta.

If you wont be around late April and early May. Celebrate even earlier by coming down to Café Coyote any day of the week for and experience you will never forget. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will show you the time of your life. Really, try a Margarita with our tequila of the month, “ El Jimador”. Casa Herradura  (the tequila with the horseshoe label) from Amatián, Jalisco  created this brand to commemorate the agave harvester. “El Jimador” is an expert on cultivation and harvesting of the agave plant. On a daily basis one jimador can harvest about 80 agave plants. Each plant is harvested in less that tree minutes.

When drinking El Jimador tequila think about the hard work that went into the final product of 100 percent agave; pure tequila. Come talk to me every Thursday from 5-9 p.m. to learn about tequila and enjoy our tequila based cocktail of the week.

¡ Salud !
