Cinco de Mayo

Today is May 5th, which means Cinco De Mayo is upon us yet again! An ode to Mexican-American pride, roots, and heritage, this celebratory holiday embraces democracy and letting freedom ring. Inspired by the Franco-Mexican War, sometime in the 1860s Mexican-American families began participating in the jubilee to show support. Here are a few fun ways to celebrate Cinco de Mayo from the comfort of your own home:

  • Serve homemade Mexican Street Tacos, Mexican Paletas, or Churros.
  • Brush up on your Spanish with Duolingo.
  • Play a round of Loteria.
  • Have some fun with the kids – donkey pinata anyone?
  • Make homemade maracas and dance to your own Cinco de Mayo Spotify playlist.
  • Use tissue paper tassels to decorate for the festivities.

Take the opportunity to celebrate the success of your business as well. A little client appreciation goes a long way – our Coffeehouse Fleur Gift Box will bring the fiesta right to their doorstep!
