Wings, pasta, and even macaron!
When people hear “Cinco de Mayo”, the first thing they usually think of is partying– and with good reason! It’s one of the biggest Mexican holidays, commemorating the underdog victory of their army over the French army (which was considered the strongest in the world at that point in time) all the way back in 1862 at the Battle of Puebla.
This inspired a great feeling of patriotism in the Mexican people, and so every May 5 they celebrate with colorful parades, good food and, of course, Mexico’s national drink, tequila.
Join in on the Cinco de Mayo fun this May 5 with a list of must-try tequila infused dishes!
