Restaurants in Yucatan

Your journey through the Yucatan's cuisine will immerse you into a world of flavors, aromas, colors, and textures, so we highly recommend starting it with a good shot of Xtabentun (pronounced "ish-ta-ben-toon"), a delicious anise and honey fermented beverage, typical of the region. Xtabentun, also called "Liqueur of the Gods", is usually drunk cold, straight and served on the rocks with a squirt of honey, coffee or tequila. Whatever the combination, it has a truly unique flavor.
