Wow the unpublished hours that apparently change from day to day upon whim are frustrating! I…read moreskimmed through at least a dozen website and every one had different hours for La Pasita. We decided to try our luck anyway but unfortunately it was closed so we went to a cafe next door to refuel with coffee. We also asked our server what time La Pasita would open but she just shrugged and said it changed a lot. However we got really lucky and when we left the coffee shop (around 3:15pm on Tuesday), the bar had opened!
We were the only customers there, so we immediately ordered a round of the Pasita drink, which had a sweet, unique flavor. The bartender didn't speak any English but luckily we had a Spanish speaker with us who translated. Apparently if you drink 100 shots of Pasita in 2 hours, they'll pay you 50,000 pesos.... and cover the funeral costs! He told us that one person had accomplished it before, and another guy got to 92 drinks and then had to go to the hospital. Yikes! There's even a fake (I hope??) tombstone in the corner for him haha
If you're luckily enough to find this place open, definitely swing by! The drinks are not exactly my style but they're definitely unique and there's so much local flavor!
