La ciudad es bebedora por excelencia: desde unas chelas hasta exquisitos cócteles, pasando por bebidas tradicionales como el mezcal, y de los dioses como el pulque, en CDMX se bebe 24/7. En este número, revisamos la historia del Tenampa, emblemático salón que nos antoja un tequila bien servido, para salir después a la plaza Garibaldi, territorio de mariachis; recorrer emblemáticas cantinas del Centro Histórico, y descubrir brebajes como el tepache o los tragos clásicos: un old fashioned, un negroni, un daikiri. También, el trago más sabroso: una cuba de ron con coca, a veces pintadita.

En la ciudad fuimos, somos y seremos. Hijes, padres, madres, progenitores, abuelxs. Vivimos todes en un encuentro de tiempos mismo del que son testigos espacios donde baile, comida, juego y amor, se convierten en motores que nos unen, y con los que superamos las diferencias.
