Aruba Day Drink

Tijuana, Mexico

No. 51 on North America's 50 Best Bars 2026, No. 13 on the 2025 Shaker Awards Top 30 Bares de México, and No. 13 on the 2024 Shaker Awards Top 30 Bares de México.

Aruba Day Drink runs on music, color and pachanga, pairing each drink with both. The bar explains that the way a drink's color is perceived shapes how it is appreciated, just as music shapes feeling, so it deliberately combines the two. The room sits in Tijuana's Zona Este, away from the tourist center.
