This is a refreshing and healthy drink for hot summer days. It's great for breakfast, or as a dessert depending on the spices and amount of sweetness you add to it. When I was in high school I would always purchase either this chicha or an orange-raspadura juice (raspadura: raw cane sugar). Chichas (natural juice + water + sugar) are always available around street food vendors and restaurants. The empanada and hot dog cart vendors specially carry several chichas sold at 25 cents. <br /> <br />You can also use this drink to make cocktails and like I mentioned before, desserts. <br /> <br />Full Post on this recipe here: http://www.cocinerita.com/chicha-de-avena/ <br />NOTE: how to make Raspadura Syrup: http://www.cocinerita.com/hibiscus-saril-limeade/
