Adventures in making homemade horchata de chufa, a brief history of the (plant-based) milky drink, and trying to get the song referenced above out of my head. Recipe inside!
I honestly thought it was the equivalent of our "orzata" but it's not! Curious to try it now. (Orzata is a syrup made of barley and bitter almond extract)
So glad that tinto de verano got a mention here bc it is my favorite “summer drink” in Spain!! But the horchata looks delicious and very cool that you made your own. Would love to know more about agua de cebada… barley water??
Love it! And I have to say we have "chufas" at home now. Not to make some horchata. In fact we soak for some hours and then we just eat them! But I have to try your recipe. Sounds easy and ... I love "horchata". Thanks! ¡Gracias!
