Bar Las Brujas

The 38 Essential Mexico City Restaurants

"Since opening in 2020, the women-led bar team at Brujas has honored female Latin American artists and activists through creative cocktails anchored in Mexican herbal medicine practices, earning a ranking on the North America’s 50 Best Bars list in the process. The bar sits in a turn-of-the-century apartment building known as Casa de las Brujas, the Witches’ House, an iconic architectural piece overlooking the Río de Janeiro plaza in Roma Norte; for decades, the building has been a figure of urban legend, since it housed Pachita, a well-known psychic and medium. The Brujas cocktail list pays tribute to Mexican botanical traditions with herb-driven libations like Woman of the Century (house vermouth, gin, and lavender soda) or the Amazona (tequila, yucca, cinnamon, and pepper tincture)." - Natalia de la Rosa, Daniela Galarza
