As the calendar turns to 2024, and with January in sight, many are waiting in anticipation for Veganuary and Dry January to try a month of veganism and/or sobriety. This is where Wahaca comes in, helping you to kick off the year with a flavourful start. With 13 restaurants across the UK, including Brighton, each Wahaca location offers a unique experience, transporting diners to the streets of Mexico through its design and culinary offerings.
The Mexican-inspired restaurant will be offering a delectable array of vegan specials and non-alcoholic cocktails throughout the first month of the year, catering to those embracing Veganuary or opting for a Dry January.
Veganuary at Wahaca in Brighton: Delicious Plant-Based Options
For plant-based enthusiasts, the Seasonal Vegetable Tetela (£6.50) takes centre stage—a generously filled, crisp tortilla parcel featuring roasted vegetables and black beans, topped with avocado salsa and vegan cashew crema (non-vegan option available with added feta cheese).
During Veganuary Wahaca in Brighton will also have a Vegan Set Menu (serves 2: £22.50 per person, £45 in total). This tantalising offering includes the Smoky Sonoran Hummus, Ancho Mushroom Tacos, Plantain Tacos, Black Bean & Vegan Cheese Quesadillas, Plant-Based Chicken & Avocado Tacos, Zesty Bean Tostadas, and a side of Seasonal Greens.
Embrace Dry January with Wahaca: Delicious Non-Alcoholic Drinks
For those partaking in Dry January or those who don’t drink for whatever reason, Wahaca presents two new non-alcoholic cocktails. The Blackberry Sour (£5.50) is made with aquafaba, basil, apple cider vinegar, avocado leaf, and rosemary. The Non-Alc Margarita (£6.50) has been improved for 2024 and combines Pentire botanical non-alcoholic spirit with lime, agave, and jalapeño for a punchy alternative.
To make things even better, Wahaca is offering guests a Blackberry Sour on the house throughout January. This can be redeemed with a voucher from wahaca.co.uk/try-our-cocktails-on-us/ (one street food dish must be purchased to redeem).
The restaurant will be serving its usual dining options, and for those desiring a spirited toast, a selection of traditional drinks, including Basil Mezcalita, Passion Fruit Vanilla Martini, Pineapple Mezcal Sour, and Picante Margarita, will also be available. So if you’re looking to try something new when the new year begins, this may just be the restaurant you need.
