Atole, a traditional Mesoamerican hot corn-based beverage, has a rich history dating back to pre-Columbian times. This comforting drink was enjoyed by the Aztecs and Mayans and has since become a beloved part of Mexican and Central American culinary traditions. The addition of almond flavor adds a delightful twist to this classic beverage, infusing it with a nutty aroma and taste. Renowned chefs in Mexico City, Oaxaca, and Guatemala have perfected their own versions of atole, incorporating regional ingredients and techniques.
