In tascas (old taverns) no wider than a hallway, you’ll find queimadas — the ritual drink. Waiters pour orujo (grape spirit) into clay bowls, add lemon peels, sugar, and coffee beans, then set it on fire. Blue flames leap as they chant the conxuro (spell): “Mouchos, coruxas, sapos e bruxas… fuxide, demo, meigas e trasnos!” (Owls, screech owls, toads and witches… flee, demon, hags and goblins!). You sip the warm, aniseed fire, and for a moment, you believe in magic.
