Chicha Morada is a traditional Peruvian beverage made from purple corn, known for its vibrant deep purple color and refreshing, fruity taste. The drink is crafted by boiling purple corn (maíz morado) with ingredients like pineapple rinds, cinnamon, cloves, and sometimes quince or apples, creating a unique blend of flavors. After boiling, the mixture is strained, sweetened, and often chilled before serving, with lime juice added for a tangy finish. Chicha Morada is rich in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins from the purple corn, which are believed to support heart health. It's a beloved drink in Peru, enjoyed as a cooling refreshment on warm days and a staple at many family gatherings and celebrations.
