CINCO de MAYO



The holiday is a celebration of Mexican culture, of food, music, beverage and customs unique to Mexico.

Cinco de Mayo honors the bravery and victory of Texas-born General Zaragoza's outnumbered militia against the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862.

Celebrating Cinco de Mayo has become increasingly popular in the United States, especially in areas with a high Mexican population.
