by liza darwin and steff yotka

Today might be Monday, but it's Cinco De Mayo! And even better, we have six---count 'em, six-- awesome reasons to save laundry duty for another day and instead go out tonight.

We've rounded up the coolest new tequilas, taste-tested them all, and picked our favorites right here. (It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it.) So no matter what you're in the mood for or what your plans tonight entail, we've got the perfect drink for you.

Click through the gallery below, grab your friends, then head out to the liquor store. It is happy hour, after all....cheers!
