Chicha Morada
|
Ingredients:
- ¼ lb of Foods Alive Purple Corn Kernels
- 4 quarts of water
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 2 cloves
- 1 Tbsp Agave Nectar (or Maple syrup)
- ½ cup fresh lime juice
- 1 cup of fresh fruit
|
Directions:
Fill a pot with the kernels and add about 4 quarts of water. Add cloves and cinnamon sticks. Either soak overnight (for a raw recipe) or bring the water to boil over high heat (for a faster recipe).
Cover the pot and let it simmer for about one hour. It will turn a very cool eggplant purple color.
Pour the liquid into a glass container if you don’t have the traditional urpu jar. Fill the pot up with water again, and cook over low heat. After about 1 hour, pour the liquid into the same glass container. Squeeze a ½ cup of fresh limes into the mixture. Let it cool down and then put it in the refrigerator. You will be set for the whole week!
Chicha morada makes a unique punch to serve at a summer barbecue! Garnish with fruit when ready to serve. For a festive party, add a couple of shots of Pisco to give your brew a little zing. Some Peruvians add Aji peppers for a kicked-up version called chicha picante.
