Beverage
Mexican

Horchata Mexicana is a traditional Mexican beverage with a rich history dating back to the time of the Aztecs. This refreshing drink is made from a blend of rice, water, cinnamon, and sweetened with sugar. The mixture is then strained to create a smooth, creamy liquid that is served over ice. Horchata has evolved over the years, with different regions in Mexico adding their own unique twist to the recipe. Some chefs infuse the drink with almonds or melon seeds for added flavor. In Mexico City, the Mercado de Coyoacán is renowned for serving some of the best horchata in the country. The key to a great horchata lies in the balance of cinnamon and sweetness, creating a harmonious and satisfying beverage. Whether enjoyed on a hot summer day or paired with spicy Mexican cuisine, horchata Mexicana is a beloved drink that continues to delight locals and visitors alike.
