Fresh-pressed juices, blended coconut water, horchata, pulque, and the warm atole sold from carts on the street.
Beyond coffee and cocktails, a handful of drinks are worth trying specifically because they’re not really available back home: fresh-pressed juices from street stands, blended coconut water served straight out of the coconut, horchata (a sweet, cinnamon-forward rice drink), pulque (a fermented agave drink older than tequila or mezcal), and atole, the warm, thick corn-based drink sold from carts and tricycles, usually alongside tamales, in flavors like vanilla, strawberry, or chocolate (champurrado).
