This Mother's Day, Cantina is whipping up something as special as the ladies we're celebrating. Say hello to our special cocktail for Mother's Day and month of May, a decadent blend that feels like a hug in a glass.

We start with a smooth vanilla vodka base, add a splash of Frangelico for that nutty sweetness, and then pour in some Baileys to bring it all home; added strawberry purée for a touch of fruitiness, a dollop of cream for silkiness, and a drizzle of chocolate syrup because, well, chocolate makes everything better. It's more than a drink; it's a dessert, a gift, and a toast to the incredible moms out there.

Swing by Cantina Bar this Mother's Day and raise a glass to the women who deserve the world 🫶
