Happy Cinco de Mayo #HappyCincodeMayo

When you think about Cinco de Mayo, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Tacos? Drinks? Guac? While those items are commonly associated with the holiday in America, there’s more to the day than those delicious foods. However, today not many people know the story of how it came to be—and we have the best Cinco de Mayo quotes to share.

Cinco de Mayo is a holiday celebrating a day nobody saw coming, when on May 5 in 1862 when Mexico’s small army of 2,000 soldiers did the unthinkable and won against 6,000 French troops during the Battle of Puebla. Years later, in 1915 after the Mexican Civil War ended, many Mexican families came to the United States to start fresh. When that happened, Americans were introduced to Cinco de Mayo by their Mexican friends and neighbors.

Over the past hundred-plus years, the holiday really took off in a fun and cheerful way in America by means of parades, yummy food and margaritas. In fact, nowadays it’s even more celebrated in the US than in Mexico, where it’s only considered to be a minor holiday. So this May when you celebrate Cinco de Mayo, you’ll now know the history behind the taco-filled day. To get you ready to celebrate, we rounded up some of our favorite cute and funny Cinco de Mayo quotes and sayings you can use on the day. Check them out, below!
