snacks and drinks

The best way to begin any meal in Mexico is with a botana (snack) something you can share with your family and friends alongside a nice drink almost always tequila or mezcal to open an appetite.

Totopos, Burrata and Toasted Corn.

Totopos, Burrata and Toasted Corn.

This is a delicious and easy snack that I like to put together for friends or family at the start of a meal, where we have time to catch up and enjoy a copita or two of mezcal while we share this tasty “botana” or snack.

Feta and Pico de Gallo with Totopos

Feta and Pico de Gallo with Totopos

Pico de Gallo is a fresh salsa that I adore and make very often at home. To me the key to a good pico de Gallo is to use different varieties of tomatoes and the best to bring extra flavour to my salsa.

On a Friday after you have picked up kids from school and everyone’s is finished work , make these “ flautas “ or crispy taquitos, serve them on a pretty platter and enjoy them with your family, I made them specially non spicy so children can eat them too.
