Mexico City is a destination full of magic in which social, cultural, and other events are happening, creating multiple possibilities and opening doors to other worlds. The most recent example is Unbirthday, the Alice in Wonderland-inspired pop-up experience. Presented by Sofitel Mexico City Reforma and Moët Hennessy.
You have until July 23 to celebrate the best Unbirthday at Sofitel Mexico City Reforma. Find a French rabbit in a great hurry to get to one of the most exclusive spaces of the Sofitel Mexico City Reforma hotel, the terrace of the old mansion. There along, Moët Hennessy Wonderland is reinterpreted.
This modern fantasyland immersion is conceived from a geometrized world that mixes textures, shapes, and vibrant colors to lead hotel guests and visitors to follow Alice’s journey through Wonderland. From her fall through the infinite tunnel in which everything is upside down to the abode of the Red Queen, where Alice will do her best not to lose her head.
The temporary Pop Up is open to cocktail lovers from Monday to Saturday from 6:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m., until July 23.
As in a dream, the exquisite cocktails prepared with Moët Hennessy speak like flowers in the garden with their unique drink me label. They invite you to try your favorite through charming rituals to get to know and taste the different brands in the cocktails conceived by Jesús Duarte. Head mixologist of the French hotel. Whether you identify with the wise caterpillar or the whimsical Red Queen in Unbirthday, you will find a cocktail to suit you.
After following the French rabbit, you will arrive at the secret door of the terrace of the old house that is made to measure perfectly to enter this story. Everything is designed to live the experience as in the story because you can enjoy a special cocktail for each of the chapters and main characters.
Start this journey with mysticism and reflection by asking yourself: Who are you? Absolem’s ritual, the caterpillar tasted, revealing a tropical margarita of Volcan de Mi Tierra tequila and worm salt frost.
Cross the garden of singing flowers with a colorful and delicious ritual that challenges you to make your own drink. Use pipettes with different infusions to compliment a refreshing Highball based on Glenmorangie The Original and an edible flower arrangement that you can decorate. Enjoy your cocktail as far as your imagination allows it.
Continue your exploration of this world by finding the Cheshire cat and watch his smile disappear into a bubbly Chandon drink sweetened with colorful cotton candy. This drink based on a French 75 is ideal to begin your best Unbirthday party, where nothing is what it seems. All is possible thanks to the unique and crazy, Mad Hatter, who brings the famous tea party to the table with a glamorous touch of Sofitel Mexico City Reforma.
For the tea party, Sofitel Mexico City Reforma has prepared Moët Hennessy, an unparalleled ritual with the perfect drink, a citrus tea with a Mexican touch based on Volcán de Mi Tierra tequila and the cheerful bubbles of Veuve Clicquot. This cocktail is shown as a tribute to the classic Hot Toddy. For your Unbirthday party, the main recommendation is to surround yourself with people who make your heart smile and share the Wonder Drink ritual. It is served in a punch bowl where you can choose between 4 mini bottles of the iconic Moët Hennessy drinks to finish your cocktail. Like Alice, play and have fun creating your own unique fruit punch drink.
Enjoy a theatrical pause during the tea party for the Red Queen’s croquet ritual. Where you’ll quickly identify this cocktail’s garnish with a white petal painted crimson red straight from Her Majesty’s garden. Enjoy and try not to lose your head with Whimsy of the queen. A mix of sweet and bitter flavors thanks to its base of Hennessy Very Special and the smooth coconut foam with almonds that crown this cocktail with a couple of strawberries.
Leave sweetness and fantasy behind to fight the Jabberwocky. Defy the rules of the Red Queen and try this dark cocktail, a mystery Old Fashioned based on Hennessy Very Special. Dash bitter cacao and Dash bitter angostura dare to finish it off.
