To infuse the lively spirit of Cinco de Mayo with the sophistication and innovation found in The Peel Craftbar & Kitchen's cocktails, the restaurant within Hotel Fera Anaheim presents a special drink menu on Sunday, May 5th. Celebrating the occasion, the following Cinco de Mayo-inspired libations will steal the spotlight:
- Picante De La Casa – Crafted with Espolon Reposado Tequila, Cointreau, pineapple juice, lime, jalapenos, micro cilantro, agave nectar, and chia seeds.
- Mezcal con Jamaica – Featuring Lost Explore Espadin Mezcal, lime, lemon, house-made hibiscus-infused syrup, and Tajin.
- Mezcal Flight – An exploration of The Lost Explorer Mezcal Espadin, Tobala, and Salmiana with three one-ounce pours.

La Sandia – Tequila, watermelon, schnapps, lime juice, lemon juice, and agave nectar.
Coco Loco – Coconut-washed tequila, pineapple juice, lime, lemon, coconut cream, and black lava salt.
Melon Verde – Tequila, Midori, lime, lemon, and honeydew syrup.
Echoing The Peel's signature cocktails, these Cinco de Mayo concoctions emphasize house-made ingredients like hibiscus and honeydew syrups, along with freshly squeezed lemon, lime, watermelon, and pineapple juices. Traditional Mexican flavors are invigorated with bold elements such as jalapeno peppers, micro-cilantro, agave nectar, Tajin, and coconut cream. Notably, the culinary flair extends to the Coco Loco, enriched with coconut-washed tequila.
Patrons delving into these vibrant cocktail specials can complement their Cinco de Mayo experience with renowned dishes from the restaurant. Noteworthy mentions include the Peel Fish Tacos, featuring mahi-mahi, sour orange adobo, coleslaw, fire-roasted tomato salsa, guacamole, lime, chipotle aioli, and cilantro on fresh corn tortillas. Additionally, Executive Chef Luis Martinez's Mexican heritage shines through in the Coastline Shrimp & Scallop Ceviche, a tantalizing ensemble of tomato, cucumber, avocado, yuzu, lime, crushed cilantro, and serrano peppers, served with tortilla chips.
Reservations are not required for Cinco de Mayo dining at The Peel. The restaurant’s food and cocktail menus change throughout the year as ingredients reach their peak flavor for consumption, allowing guests to taste the seasons as they enjoy a quick bite after work or a relaxing family dinner.
