En mi salsa

An Andean blessing ritual where alcohol (beer, chicha, or singani) is poured onto the ground, a new object, or a space to give thanks and ask for good fortune. In Bolivia you challa a new car, a house, a business opening. From Aymara and Quechua, it is central to the Andean worldview: giving back a little to Pachamama for what she gave you.
