Denisse Soto, a Chicago-based mixologist, creatively fuses Mexican flavors into inventive cocktails, honoring her family's culinary traditions. Inspired by her travels and experiences, Soto founded her consultancy, Denisse Soto With Flair, focusing on Mexican ingredients and vibrant flavors. At her key venue, Cariño, she showcases authentic Mexican tastes within her cocktail creations. Following personal losses, she has embraced creativity and risk in her work, aiming to make each cocktail a storytelling experience rooted in her heritage while highlighting the Mexican diaspora in Latin America.
When my mom passed I made a cochinita pibil cocktail. It's a dish synonymous with the Yucatán, where she's from. I'm really focused on combining gastronomy with cocktails.
Soto has made it her mission to share Mexican culture with as many people as possible, one cocktail at a time, using her family's culinary traditions.
