Get the featured cocktail recipe: The Only Island  Want to celebrate Cinco de Mayo properly? While the rest of the country is overdosing on Corona and quesadillas, you might want to reach for cabernet and crepes; France, it turns out, has more to do with Mexican food than you might think. In part dos, or deux, of our talk with Emily Key, Director of Education at the Smithsonian Latino Center, we continue our exploration of Cinco de Mayo, including a hearty discussion about the influence of French cuisine on today’s Mexican foods. Think about it… crepes are a cousin of the enchilada, and bolillos and telera are cousins to the French baguette. And with all this talk about food, you’re going to need a mezcal cocktail to wash it all down with. Not to worry, Gina’s got you covered!
