Handshake Speakeasy is an exclusive cocktail bar in Mexico City’s Colonia Juárez neighborhood, hidden behind an unmarked black door. Known for its sophisticated, Prohibition-era ambiance, the bar blends vintage aesthetics with modern mixology. The elegant interior features a black marble bar framed by copper arches, with moody lighting and brass accents enhancing the atmosphere. Led by Bar Director Eric van Beek, Handshake’s menu is a mix of classic and experimental cocktails, crafted using cutting-edge techniques. Signature drinks, such as the Butter Mushroom Old Fashioned, showcase unique flavor combinations. The bar spans two levels, with the upper floor offering a refined, intimate setting, while the lower level has a lively, graffiti-adorned space with contemporary R&B music. Named the World’s Best Bar in 2024, Handshake is a must-visit for cocktail enthusiasts. Reservations are highly recommended due to its popularity.
