Lounge Fernando, the cocktail bar inside Hotel San Fernando in Mexico City's trendy Condesa neighborhood, is giving Mondays a fresh identity with Negrete Negroni Mondays, a weekly experience that blends contemporary mixology, Mexican cuisine, and the distinctive character of artisanal spirits.

Available every Monday from 3:00 p.m. until closing, the Negrete Negroni is offered at a special price of MXN 150, inviting guests to discover a uniquely Mexican interpretation of one of the world's most celebrated cocktails.

While the drink preserves the classic Negroni's iconic balance, it replaces gin with La Última y Nos Vamos, an artisanal mezcal produced in Ocotlán de Morelos, Oaxaca. Mixed in equal parts with sweet red vermouth and Campari, served over a large ice cube, and finished with a fresh orange slice, the cocktail retains the bittersweet profile of the Italian original while introducing the smoky, mineral notes that define high-quality mezcal.

The experience extends well beyond the bar. Lounge Fernando has curated a menu of Mexican-inspired dishes designed for sharing, including tuna tostadas, rib-eye tacos, spinach dip, marinated olives, and a mixed nut platter—ideal accompaniments for an unhurried afternoon or evening centered around cocktails and conversation.

Located in the heart of Condesa, Lounge Fernando has established itself as a destination for those seeking modern mixology rooted in Mexico's rich tradition of distilled spirits. Its cocktail program highlights beverages such as mezcal, pox, and tequila, pairing regional ingredients with contemporary techniques and a food menu that emphasizes quality, flavor, and local character.

For visitors looking to experience Mexico City's vibrant cocktail scene beyond the usual classics, Negrete Negroni Mondays offer a compelling reason to stop by and discover how an Italian icon takes on an entirely new personality when crafted with Mexican mezcal. Cheers!
