About Tigernut juice

Tigernut juice, also known as "horchata de chufa," is a creamy, refreshing beverage made from tigernuts—small tubers native to northern Africa and the Mediterranean. Traditionally enjoyed in Spanish cuisine, particularly in Valencia, this plant-based drink is naturally sweet and often flavored with cinnamon or vanilla. Tigernut juice is rich in fiber, vitamins E and C, and essential minerals like magnesium and potassium, supporting digestion, immunity, and heart health. It is lactose-free, gluten-free, and vegan, making it an excellent choice for those with dietary restrictions. Additionally, tigernuts are a source of resistant starch, which can act as a prebiotic to nourish gut bacteria. However, commercial varieties may contain added sugars, so opting for unsweetened or homemade versions is ideal for maintaining its health benefits. Enjoy chilled for a nutrient-packed indulgence rooted in rich cultural tradition.
