This is a recipe for another popular Christmas drink from Mexico. Atole is a light to thick (depending where you are in Mexico) drink made with corn meal (masa harina), sugar flavoured with cinnamon and vanilla.

Recipe for 4 people:
  • 5 cups of water or milk
  • 1/2 cup masa harina (corn meal)
  • 1/4 cup piloncillo
  • 1/2 cinnamon stick
  • 1/2 vanilla pod, opened and scraped
In a thick bottom sauce pan, mix well the masa harina and water (or milk) until smooth. Put on a gentle fire and start heating up the mixture. Then, add the piloncillo, vanilla pod and cinnamon and cook for 5 to 10 minutes depending on the consistency that you want to reach. Make sure to stir at all time.
Serve hot.
