Filmed in Mammoth Lakes, California, it shows Karol G and an all-Latina crew dressed in glittering bikinis and glimmering stilettos in the snow. They are seen dancing, skiing, snowboarding, and riding snowmobiles in the peaks of Sierra Nevada, and spending time at a ski resort's jacuzzi.

The music video also features a cameo from flamenco guitarist Jose Del Tomate.
When talking about the video, Giraldo described the video as a "sarcastic take about how hot us Latinas are." She added, "For Latinas, it's really important that we're always 'on point' with our outfits. I wanted that idea to be reflected visually, but the reality is we were freezing to death."
