Cinco de Mayo

Friday will bring us another Cinco de Mayo, so get out the tequila and mix up some Margaritas and Sangritas to celebrate. Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican national holiday that celebrates an underdog victory over the French in 1862. The parties take place every May 5th with fiestas, dancing, parades and a lot of drinking. Leave yourself enough energy at the end of the night for the traditional shout out: "Viva Mexico! Viva Juárez!"
