Pantera Fresca is a “paletas heladas” shop as we call them here in Mexico, which means ice pops. With different locations all around the city, I love this place because of their unique and diverse Mexican flavors which can’t be found anywhere else.

My personal favorites include: Zapote fruit, mamey fruit, cajeta, chocolate abuelita, tamarind and lime with gummy bears, but the most popular popsicle is the “conejo en la luna” – a vanilla ice cream base with a chocolate bunny inside.

This place usually escapes the eye of travelers because it’s pretty simple, unassuming and easily passed by. Most of the shops are super small, so try using Google Maps to get there.

These popsicles are such a great treat for a hot day discovering Mexico City and the prices are so affordable you can have one every day for dessert :).
