Mexican gastronomic and beverage tourism

Overview

Mexico is highlighting its regional beverage traditions and gastronomic tourism through various cultural celebrations and museum initiatives.

In Chiapas, the San Roque community revived the tradition of preparing large quantities of pozol, an ancestral Zoque beverage, using a new decorated stainless steel vessel. Simultaneously, the Choco Story Zócalo Cocoa and Chocolate Museum in Mexico City marked its first anniversary, having hosted over 50,000 visitors interested in traditional chocolate preparation.

Regional tourism efforts have expanded to include festivals such as a pulque celebration in Ecatepec, featuring tastings and workshops. Additionally, various ‘Pueblos Mágicos’ are promoting local production methods, including tequila tours in Jalisco, mezcal distillation in Oaxaca, and brewing traditions in Baja California.
