Everybody’s loco for Cinco de Mayo! The holiday is meant to celebrate the anniversary of the Battle of Puebla, honoring Mexico’s 1862 victory over French forces. Although most Americans are admittedly a bit fuzzy on the history of the day, we’re pretty clear on how to celebrate… with drinks at our favorite Mexican restaurant, por supuesto!

Salud!
