SIP MX
SipMX is a personal corner of the internet dedicated to the people, drinks, and culture that shape Mexico’s bar scene.
Here you’ll find unfiltered thoughts on cocktails and hospitality, profiles of local bartenders, and the occasional deep dive into a mezcal pour that hit just right.
From random rants to cocktail reviews, SipMX is part diary, part industry notebook — always grounded in the soul of CDMX.
