I was a little dubious when our land lady, Gloria, produced this little concoction for lunch one day. Juice made from purple corn. However, it was delicious. Heavilt ladened with sugar and cinnamon, and smelling like my Mum´s house at Christmas. It didn´t even taste like corn.
There are other versions of Chicha around in Peru, but those versions are alcoholic that is a bit like a homebrew made and served for locals (I didn´t try that one however, as the versions we saw were kind of pink and fermented looking, sitting in gallon drums on the side on the Inca trail so we let that one go).
