Chicha de Jora is a traditional fermented beverage from Peru, made primarily from yellow corn. The process involves soaking and germinating the corn, which is then dried and ground. Water is added to the mixture, and it is left to ferment for several days, resulting in a mildly alcoholic drink with a slightly sweet and sour flavor. This beverage has deep cultural significance, often associated with Andean rituals and celebrations. It is commonly consumed during festivals and gatherings, serving as a symbol of hospitality and community. Chicha de Jora is also enjoyed in various regions of Peru, each with its unique preparation methods and variations.
