About Salvadoran horchata

Salvadoran Horchata is a traditional beverage originating from El Salvador, made by blending ground seeds, spices, and rice with water or milk. Its key ingredients include morro seeds, sesame seeds, rice, cinnamon, and sometimes almonds, peanuts, or vanilla, offering a unique nutty and aromatic flavor profile. Typically sweetened with sugar, it is popular at gatherings and as a refreshing drink on warm days. Salvadoran Horchata is naturally caffeine-free and contains healthy fats, fiber, and minerals from the seeds, making it a nourishing choice in moderation. However, the addition of sugar can increase its calorie content, making it less ideal for those watching their sugar intake. For a lighter option, it can be made with less sugar or alternative sweeteners. Salvadoran Horchata is a delightful representation of Salvadoran cuisine, marrying traditional flavors with satisfying richness.
