Cinco De Mayo T-Shirts and Apparel
An entire holiday designated to tacos, booze, and more tacos? Yeah, sign us up!
Arguably the best holiday on the planet/solar system, Cinco de Mayo (Fifth of May, for the Spanish impaired) is not Mexican Independence Day—despite what many people might think.
Yup, it’s true. Cinco de Mayo is actually the day the Mexican Army won a shocking victory over the French Empire back in 1862. Not only does the holiday commemorate a great military victory, but it also celebrates Mexican unity in the face of overwhelming odds.
Well, at least that was the original idea. Today, the colorful holiday is much more popular in the US of YAY than in Mehico (prob cuz American’s love any excuse to make pour choices and drink). And while it’s nominally about honoring Mexican-American culture, let’s be honest, people—it’s Taco and Margarita Day as far as most of us are concerned.
In other words, it’s not a holiday to be taken too seriously. Much like its drunk Irish cousin St. Patty’s Day, Cinco de Mayo is a good time for lots of laughs, lots of shots, and lots of good food.
Just instead of whiskey, corned beef, and cabbage, on Cinco de Drinko, we give into beer pressure and take one too many shots of tequila, rock out with our guac out, and stuff our faces with as many tacos as we possibly can. Mmmm, tacos!
So, what’s the best way to celebrate the beloved holiday, you ask? It’s simple, really. Just grab your amigos and go get smashed. Cinco de Mayo is a day to get bad and boozy with the besties—just don’t forget to support your local bartender!
And while you’re at it, might as well stock up on a few (or a ton) Cinco de Mayo-inspired shirts. Whether you’re feeling SO extra, especially spicy, or just want everyone to know that the tequila made you do it, we have the perfect tee for you.
Why so much booze? Because no great story ever started with a salad (duhh). And have you ever had a margarita? Yeah, who doesn’t love tequila with lime and a salty rim?
No Juan ever, that’s who!
Eat some tacos, take a shot, buy a shirt, and repeat. Happy Cinco, friends!
