NEW YORK – April 22, 2025 – Cointreau, the iconic orange liqueur and the essential ingredient in The Original
Margarita, is shaking up celebrations this Cinco de Mayo with the return of The Cointreau Lime of Credit – and this

Margarita-lovers nationwide even more chances to win cash payouts of up to $500, so they can enjoy Margaritas,
made the MargaRight way with Cointreau, tequila, and fresh lime juice.

apply for their chance to win. On May 6, 2025, thousands of lucky winners will be approved for The Cointreau Lime

stocking up for your at-home celebration, or hiring a personal lime squeezer (because why not?), securing your
Cointreau Lime of Credit is the way to invest in better Margaritas, made with Cointreau, of course.
"Cinco de Mayo and Margaritas go hand in hand, and as the essential ingredient in The Original Margarita,
Cointreau is committed to ensuring every Margarita is made the MargaRight way," said Nicolas Beckers, President
and CEO at Rémy Cointreau Americas. "With the return of The Cointreau Lime of Credit, we are not only
