“Tijuana was established in the late 19th century, but became popular with Americans during the Prohibition Era, when it was a refuge for those looking to legally drink, party and listen to jazz music. It’s one of Mexico’s youngest cities, while also being full of surprises. Case in point: Caesar salad was invented there in the 1920s by an Italian immigrant named Caesar Cardini. It’s also Mexico’s craft beer capital, influencing many beer brands we know and love today, including Tecate, a beverage that was invented 45 minutes east of Tijuana.”
