Real Latinos Drink Yoo-Hoo on Cinco de Mayo

Every Cinco de Mayo, sales of Corona spike. Sales of Tecate spike. Everyone hits the liquor store to stock up on Mexican beer and limes. Little do they know that they have been misled.
Celebrating Cinco de Mayo doesn't revolve around drinking Mexican beer.
Real Latinos drink Yoo-Hoo on Cinco de Mayo.
Don't believe me? Check it:
- I'm Latino.
- It's Cinco de Mayo.
- I'm sippin' the 'Hoo.
For realzies. For as long as I can remember, Yoo-Hoo has been a central part of my culture's celebration of the Battle of Puebla. We raised our voices as we raised our glasses [of Yoo-Hoo].
Spread the word to all your socially networked contacts or whatever. We've got to set the record straight.
Cinco de Mayo = Cinco de Yoo-Hoo.
Yes we can. Honest.

I was hesitant to believe you in the first place, but your reasoning seems solid. Happy Cinco de Yoo-hoo!
Thanks, Jen. My reasoning is based on the scientific method.
I have proof that non-Latino people can also enjoy Cinco de Yoo-Hoo:
1. I am not a Latino person.
2. I drank Yoo-Hoo on Cinco de Mayo.
Brothers from different mothers? Probably.
I think you're right, William. We are clearly related.
La familia is so important.
I think that I'll try a Yoo-Hoo on my next cheat day. It's been a long time.
I want a cheat day. Makes me think of Homestar Runner.
