Make A Margarita For A Hero Astronaut

56 years ago today, May 5^th of 1961, astronaut Alan Shepard became the 1^st American in space, with his 15 minute sub-orbital flight around the earth in a Mercury spacecraft. He was one of the original 7 astronauts who risked their lives in order to move our country forward.

But nobody thinks about his historic flight on this May 5^th of 1961, because everyone is thinking about partying for Cinco De Mayo.

So I propose we make and drink a margarita in his honor. The above video will show you how.
