Sweet and refreshing, this traditional drink is typical from Valencia. Also, it is one of the most famous drinks of Spain. It can be prepared from different products (almonds, rice, coconut, sesame seeds, and barley), but the most common horchata is made of ground chufa nuts.
This type of horchata dates from the period of Muslim presence in Valencia, so it has a long tradition in Spain, but specially in the Mediterranean area.
It can be served ice cold as a healthy refreshing drink in the summer and it is often served with fartons, a typical pastry from Alboraya, a town of Valencian.
