Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a twist—the alfajoric kind. While this holiday is often seen in the U.S. as an excuse to enjoy tequila, we’re taking it a step further at Wooden Table Baking by turning it into a delicious reason to eat tequila too.
What is Cinco de Mayo?
Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Mexican army’s victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. While it's a relatively minor holiday in Mexico, in the U.S. it has evolved into a vibrant celebration of Mexican culture, food, music, and heritage—and we’re here for it!
Introducing: Tequila Lime Alfajores
To honor the spirit of Cinco de Mayo, Andrés has created a seasonal favorite: Tequila Lime Alfajores. These indulgent shortbread cookie sandwiches are filled with dulce de leche infused with tequila and topped with a bright, zesty tequila lime meringue. The result? A festive flavor explosion that’s perfect for your backyard party or sweet Cinco de Mayo gathering.
Don’t worry—they’re not alcoholic. Just 100% delicious.
Fun Fact
Tequila is distilled from the heart (piña) of the blue agave plant, grown primarily in Jalisco, Mexico. That agave syrup you find at natural food stores? It comes from the same plant. Nature’s sweet gift—turned into something extraordinary.
