A dark raisin liqueur poured as a single shot and served with a cube of fresh cheese and a raisin speared on a stick. Puebla drinks it standing, in one bar, on one corner.

Pasita is a liqueur and an address at the same time. The cantina that gives it its name opened beside the Plazuela de los Sapos in 1916 under a different sign, and became known for the house raisin liqueur its founder made on the premises. It is served in a small glass with a cube of fresh cheese and a raisin on a cocktail stick, and the combination of sweet, sharp and salty in one mouthful is the entire ritual. The room shuts in the early evening, which means drinking it is a daytime activity rather than a night out.
