Sweet-and-spicy shrimp and citrus-braised carnitas tacos, plus a flavor-packed Mexican Candy Margarita* and non-alcoholic Mangonada are arriving in time for Cinco de Mayo festivities

IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Fuzzy’s Taco Shop, the restaurant known for serving up delicious tacos, innovative drinks and good vibes, is introducing a new limited-time Viva Los Tacos menu designed for when the weather gets warmer and gatherings get louder. Available through June 14, the lineup is Fuzzy’s take on authentic Mexican flavors in exclusive tacos, bowls and beverages, including a zero-proof Mangonada that taps into the growing demand for non-alcoholic options. Bright citrus, zesty spice and a touch of sweetness are served with a laid-back, can’t-miss energy that is made for Cinco De Mayo and soccer watch parties.

The tacos lean into contrast, blending sweet spice with citrus to offer two standout flavors that play off each other, light enough to enjoy during heated matches:

• Honey Chipotle Shrimp Taco ($4.65)**: Sweet heat meets coastal Mexican vibes with crispy tempura shrimp tossed in a chipotle honey sauce, cabbage, pickled red onions, avocado-lime crema, and chopped cilantro on a flour tortilla.
• Fiery Citrus Carnitas Taco ($3.70): Turn up the heat, Yucatán style, with citrus-braised carnitas, zesty habanero salsa, cabbage, pickled red onions, feta, chopped cilantro, and a fresh lime wedge on a corn tortilla.

Made for occasions that call for something to share, elote (Mexican corn) shows up in its classic form and as a bowl with grilled chicken, making it hard to pass up:

• Grilled Chicken Elote Bowl ($9.60): Street corn energy in a bowl with cilantro-lime rice and Fuzzy's elote piled with grilled chicken, pickled red onions, avocado, cilantro-lime crema, feta, chopped cilantro, and Tajín.
• Elote ($2.89): Straight off the street, this charred corn is topped with cilantro-lime crema, feta, chopped cilantro, and a dusting of Tajín.

When the heat hits, Fuzzy’s comes through with two beverages that will help you get hyped for Cinco De Mayo and beyond:

• Mexican Candy Margarita ($10.50): Sweet and spicy watermelon margarita, shaken with Teremana Reposado and Ghost Blanco tequilas, finished with a Tajín rim and tamarind straw.
• Mangonada ($5.50): Strictly zero-proof but packed with flavor and fun, the frozen mango purée and tangy chamoy is finished with a Tajín rim and tamarind straw.

“When we started building this menu, we knew we wanted something that felt right for this time of year and the way people are eating and getting together,” said Chef Daniel Camp, Director of Culinary for Fuzzy’s Taco Shop. “That led us to flavors that you see across different parts of Mexico, like the citrus and spice in the Yucatán Peninsula, and to a balance that feels bright and easy to keep coming back to.”

Because Cinco de Mayo calls for a festive-filled atmosphere, Fuzzy’s is giving guests another reason to show up and stay a while. On Tuesday, May 5, guests can celebrate with $10 Half Yard Margs and tacos starting at $2.50 all day. Did your Cinco hit a little too hard? Rewards Members can bounce back on Wednesday, May 6 for free chips and queso with purchase***.
