It’s time to raise a discounted margarita for Cinco de Mayo.
While the annual holiday on May 5 (not to be confused for Mexico’s Independence Day) commemorates the Mexican Army’s victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862, restaurants in the U.S. Have taken to offering patrons discounts on margaritas, shots, and tacos.
