For us Cinco de Mayo is a time for parties but did you know the history behind the famous date?
Often mistaken as Mexico’s Independence Day, Cinco de Mayo represents a pivotal moment in the country’s fight for independence.
On May 5, 1862, Ignacio Zaragoza led the Mexican army to a successful defense against the French Empire. Today, Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in virtually every corner of the world.
This year, Jose Cuervo celebrates the spark of independence with street parties all throughout Metro Manila on Saturday, May 4th, 2019:
- Poblacion, Makati City (Select partner bars in Don Pedro & Alfonso St.)
- Katipunan, Quezon City (Pop-Up)
- Bonifacio Global City, Taguig (The Island)
Partygoers can enjoy 5 shots of Jose Cuervo tequila at partner bars for just PHP300.00!
