In 2010 the Las Vegas location of Hussong’s became the first U.S. outpost of the oldest cantina in Mexico, where as lore has it, the margarita was invented.

Guests wishing to toast to Hussong’s turning five can enjoy drink specials including five dollar buckets of five Tecate or Tecate Light beers or Hussong’s Birthday Margarita featuring five shots of Sauza Blue Reposado with vanilla cake batter, strawberry syrup, whipped cream and sprinkles, served in a souvenir chalice and topped with a candle for $25.
