Pinol drink
Pinol Drink is a traditional Mexican beverage made from ground corn, cinnamon, and other spices. It is a popular drink in some regions of Mexico and Central America. Pinol Drink is typically prepared by mixing the ground corn with water, adding cinnamon, and sweetening it with sugar or honey.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cornmeal (finely ground corn)
- 4 cups water
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 4 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine the cornmeal and water. Stir well to ensure there are no lumps.
- Add the cinnamon sticks to the saucepan.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any remaining solids.
- Stir in the sugar, adjusting the amount to your desired sweetness.
- If you prefer a cold version, refrigerate the Pinol Drink until chilled. Otherwise, it can be served warm.
- Optionally, serve the Pinol Drink over ice cubes for a refreshing twist.
