Partida Margarita Dinner:
Sofia Partida Pairs with Mary Sue and Susan

Cinco de Mayo comes early this year when Mary Sue and Susan pair up with special guest Sofia Partida of Partida Tequila on Thursday, April 19, 2012 for a celebration of inventive, handcrafted margaritas at Border Grill Santa Monica. Featuring the pure, natural essence of blue agave in Partida Tequila, each unique margarita will complement a Cinco de Mayo-inspired menu created by Border Grill Santa Monica Executive Chef Alex Moreno. Akin to Mexico’s victorious Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, Chef Alex's oyster shooters will pop with black pepper-laced tequila, mussels will triumph in a luscious bowl of chile de arbol broth, and the celebration will culminate with a drunken, tequila-infused cake. Seats at this exclusive Partida Margarita Dinner will go fast so please call 310.451.1655 for reservations.

For tequila purists and margarita enthusiasts alike, Border Grill offers a spicy, citrus Sangrita recipe to accompany your favorite sipping tequila and mixes up the best margaritas in L.A., according to LA Weekly.
