Horchata de morro

(Horchata morro)

Horchata de morro is a type of horchata or agua fresca that hails from El Salvador. It is made with ground morro (jícaro) seeds that are ground and mixed with water or milk to create a smooth, creamy drink. Some of the typical ingredients added to the mix are rice, peanuts, vanilla, cinnamon, cocoa, and sesame seeds.


This beverage is traditionally served cold, preferably in an ice-filled glass. It is sweetened to taste and best enjoyed as a refreshing summer drink.
