From food blog [Hungry Girl](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tajin-flavored-crust) por Vida, the cocktails combine the sweet creaminess of vanilla with tart citrus to create what blogger Cindy calls an "adult creamsicle minus orange and dairy, plus lime and booze." Extremely easy to mix up for cocktail hour, the Cinco de Mayo drinks consist of a raw sugar and vanilla bean syrup (which can also be added to your morning coffee if you have leftovers), [lime juice, tequila](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/millionaire-margarita), water and a vanilla salt rim. They are ideally served with lime wedges over crushed ice. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Raw Sugar Syrups:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the creation of unique and flavorful raw sugar syrups for cocktails and other beverages. - **Vanilla Infused Cocktails:** Innovation opportunity lies in developing new cocktail recipes that incorporate vanilla flavors in creative and unexpected ways. - **Boozy Citrus Drinks:** Disruptive innovation potential in crafting new alcoholic beverage recipes that combine the tartness of citrus with the pleasure of drinking. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Beverage Industry:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the beverage industry by creating unique and refreshing drink options for consumers. - **Cocktail Supply Industry:** Innovation potential in the cocktail supply industry to develop and market new products like vanilla salt rim to enhance the drinking experience. - **Home Bartending Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity in the home bartending industry to provide easy-to-use cocktail kits with raw sugar syrups and vanilla-infused ingredients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Celebratory Avocado Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avocado-daiquiri.md) - [Festive Avocado Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avocado-cocktails.md) - [Queso-Paired Cocktail Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinco-de-mayo-cocktail-kit.md) - [Spicy Pickle-Flavored Margarita Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pickle-margarita.md) - [Agave Wine Margaritas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-and-night-margaritas.md) - [Cream Tequila Liqueurs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sombrero-mexicano.md) - [Simple Tangy Margaritas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinco-de-mayo-drink.md) - [Dynamic RTD Margaritas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/agave-boom-margaritas.md) - [Shaker-Free RTD Margaritas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunny-margarita.md)
