Traditional Mexican Beverages
Traditional Mexican beverages encompass a variety of drinks that reflect the country's rich cultural heritage. Popular options include horchata, a sweet rice-based drink flavored with cinnamon, and aguas frescas, which are refreshing fruit-infused waters made from ingredients like jamaica (hibiscus) and tamarindo (tamarind).
Another well-known beverage is tequila, a distilled spirit made from the blue agave plant, primarily produced in the region surrounding the city of Tequila. Additionally, pulque, a fermented drink made from the sap of the agave plant, has been enjoyed for centuries and is often flavored with fruits or herbs.
