A little pink, a lot of purpose.
This October, Back to My Roots travels to Jalisco, where culinary tradition meets a cause close to our hearts.
In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Chef Carlos Gaytán introduces two dishes inspired by the flavors of Jalisco, both featuring shades of pink: a rich, savory pink risotto and a delicate quail accompanied by mole rosa.
Behind the bar, we’re partnering with Tequila Poderrosa, a woman-owned tequila brand rooted in Jalisco’s Los Valles region, to create a cocktail that brings together tequila, mezcal, Cointreau, and mole rosa syrup.
Throughout October, $1 from every Back to My Roots dish and cocktail sold will be donated to ELLAS (En La Lucha A Sobrevivir), a Chicago-based initiative of The Resurrection Project dedicated to supporting Latina breast cancer survivors through education, community, and empowerment.
A celebration of Jalisco’s culinary heritage, the women who shape it, and the strength of those in our own community.
Available throughout October at Tzuco.
