It is no secret that we love a good cocktail around here, especially a spicy margarita. And since close to 75% of our products are hand-crafted in Mexico, Cinco de Mayo feels especially apropos to Half Past Seven.
We’ve written about this before but one of our favorite barware staples is a good elixir, and Gris Gris is by far the best. Made from clean ingredients and blended with surprisingly delicious flavors, we’re adding Gris Gris to all of cocktails - especially our margaritas!

We like to elevate our margarita game by entertaining with an unexpected twist - the heat from the Gris Gris Jalapeno Hex served in a non-traditional glass, like our Tortoise Rocks Glasses.

P.S. Do you know the origins of Cinco de Mayo? The holiday actually celebrates Mexico's victory over France in the Battle of Puebla in 1862. Cinco de Mayo is actually a relatively minor holiday in Mexico and observed primarily in the state of Puebla. Since the 1960s, here in the Untied States it has become interpreted as a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage.
