  "account": "Four Mexican bars have secured spots in the prestigious 2026 list of The World's 50 Best Bars. The esteemed Mexican establishments hold positions 6, 10, 28 and 47 on the global ranking.\n\nHandshake Speakeasy, situated in Mexico City's Zona Rosa, clinched the number 6 spot. Established by Rodrigo Urraca, Marcos Di Battista and Dutch bartender Eric van Beek, the venue has sustained its top ranking since being named the World's Best Bar in 2024. The world's leading bartending publication lauded Handshake Speakeasy for its unique spin on classic cocktails, notably the piña colada.\n\nBar Mauro, also in Mexico City's Roma Norte district, claimed the number 10 position. Brothers Ricardo and Eduardo Nava launched the spot in November 2024. Bar Mauro celebrated for its inventive cocktails like the Negroni and basilico, earned the Disaronno Highest New Entry Award for emerging bars ascending to the top 50.\n\nEl Gallo Altanero, located in Guadalajara's Colonia Americana neighborhood, made history as the sole Mexican bar to appear in the top 50. Founded in 2018 by Swedish bartender Freddy Andreasson and Alejandra Aguinaga, the establishment emphasizes seasonal Mexican ingredients in its cocktails, including the Jalisco Old Fashioned and tuna negra.\n\nTlecan, another Mexico City bar, ranked 47th. Founded by Bernardo Serna, Eduardo Panchur and Eli Martínez Bello in 2019, Tlecan's cocktail menu celebrates Mexico's agave culture and lesser-known spirits like bacanora, pox and raicilla. Its highlights include the paloma blanca and a pulque-infused piña colada.",
  "summary": "And make no mistake about it, these are truly Mexican establishments, not European imitators, with Mexican management, Mexican and pre-Columbian themes and an emphasis (though of course not exclusive) on Mexican spirits.
