Today is Cinco de Mayo! A day of celebration not only in Mexico but in many places now. When this amazing recipe came through my inbox I knew that I wanted to share it with you all. May 9th is May 9th is National Moscato Day, an annual holiday dedicated to enjoying the delicious wine varietal. So I thought why not share Gallo Family Wine’s recipe with you all today and you can have excuse to have it twice in one week!
Gallo Family Vineyards offers three great Moscato wines – White, Pink & Red which I am sure are as wonderful as all of their other wines.In the spirit of these changing ideas about wine and sharing experiences, Gallo Family Vineyards invites Americans to show how they #MixItUp on #MoscatoDay during a @GalloFamily Twitter Party at 7 pm EST on Friday, May 9th. Fans can also take Gallo Family’s “Moscatofy Yourself” quiz on the Winery website beginning on May 9th.

I love Cinco de Mayo recipes, especially drink recipes. I am a huge fan of pink moscato, but will also drink the red too. This drink looks quite delish and awesome to make for this celebration.
