Cinco de Mayo is coming up and I am really looking forward to it. We've had a lot on our plates these last months and I for one could use a day of celebration with the important people in my life. We could all use a few carefree moments to remember what's really important in life: family and friends. When your life is filled with good people, great moments and delicious food, you can't help but be happy. That's why I am really excited for our annual Cinco de Mayo gathering this year.

Of course you simply can't have a successful Cinco de Mayo celebration without including ice cold bottles of Corona Extra and Modelo Especial beer.



With Corona Extra and Modelo Especial at your Cinco de Mayo celebration, your guests will really enjoy those carefree moments a little bit more.  

Today I am going to share my quick & easy recipe for Mexican Style Shrimp Kabobs, perfect for your Cinco de Mayo & summer gatherings.  

Ingredients:

1 pound pre-cooked shrimp (or 1 pound or shelled and deveined raw shrimp)

2 chopped serrano peppers

2 limes juiced

2 cloves of minced garlic

1/4 cup chopped cilantro

1/4 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon cumin powder

salt & pepper to taste

Instructions:

Pour all ingredients into a bowl, mix well and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.  

Skewer the shrimp and grill over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until cooked.

These kabobs are so spicy that you are definitely going to need that cold bottle of either Corona Extra or Modelo Especial to wash them down.

I personally enjoy Corona Extra whenever I am having a beer. Corona's refreshing, smooth taste isn't too heavy or too light, it's perfectly balanced for my taste. If you're like me - someone who enjoys a good beer every now and then but isn't a beer drinking heavyweight, this is probably the beer for you.

If your guests prefer a fuller flavored beer, Modelo Especial is exactly for them. Modelo Especial is brewed the way a good beer should be. Modelo Especial is a beer born with the Fighting Spirit. It’s brewed with time, effort, and determination to create the model Mexican lager.  It's  full-flavored Pilsner-style Lager delivers a crisp, refreshing taste that your guests will thoroughly enjoy.

This Cinco de Mayo, gather your friends and family over and enjoy some down-time. It's been a rough few months, but just like these cervezas, we were born with the fighting spirit and will celebrate life, just like always.

This Cinco de Mayo and the coming summer months are a great time to invite your family & friends over, hand them a bottle of Corona or Modelo beer and celebrate life. You don't need a special occasion to have a few carefree moments to just chill and hang out. Hay que saber vivir con todo el corazon.
