Well, today's as good a day as any to go to a local Mexican food restaurant/bar and have a few tequila drinks along with your entree. "Cinco de Mayo" is a non-public holiday in Mexico that celebrates the Mexican Army's defeat of the French in the Battle of Puebla.
Contrary to what most Americans believe. The 5th of May is NOT Mexican Independence day. That day is celebrated in Mexico on 16 September. (16 de Septiembre: El Grito de Independencia)
