Cinco De Mayo is a traditional Mexican Holiday celebrated by Mexicans and Americans - as a celebration of the mexican army beating the french in 1862. However, in modern times it's celebrated across the world and is an excuse to eat in mexican restaurants, drink margaritas and throw parties. But these are unprecedented times and for many around the world Cinco De Mayo will not be the same!

For anyone who usually celebrates - or if your just bored in lockdown. We've thrown together 7 Ideas to spice up your 5th of May - Mexican Style!


1 - Make a Cinco De Mayo Playlist.


Using Spotify, Apple Music or Amazon Music listen to some of the hottest mexican musicians. Find or create a playlist and have a truely authentic Cinco De Mayo fiesta and support musicians at the same time too!

2 - Decorate!


Although it might not be an ideal time to go out and buy decorations - simple paper decor is cheap, easy and (I believe) Amazon-able... Maybe have a google before tossing sombreros and cocktail umbrellas all over your house!

3 - Support Local.


Support a local mexican resturaunt/at least one which sells mexican food - Likley-hood is they'll be able to deliver some delicious food right to your doorstep.


4 - Cook your own mexican foods.


If you would rather cook up your own mexican fiesta try out some mexican dishes. Most of the ingredients will be avaliable at your local supermarket - just make sure you adhere to social distancing!


5 - Make your own margaritas.


Bust out your best Tom Cruise impression and make your own margaritas! Get yourself some margarita mix and obviously don't forget the tequila. You can add almost anything to spice up the recipe - Strawberry, Pineapple or Lemon - There is endless possibilities. But it might not be the best idea to drink them all at once.


6 - Get the gang together!


Get your friends together and host a zoom party-fiesta! Get creative with the Zoom backgrounds and get right in the mexican spirit. Drink and eat mexican cuisine!


7 - Get your craft on.


Make your own Piñata - grab some cardboard, colourful paper and glue. See what you can make! Fill it with treats and let everyone take their lockdown frustrations out on it
