Authentic Mexican Pozol
Pozol, a traditional Mexican beverage, is a perfect blend of simplicity and nourishment. Made from corn dough mixed with water, it is a refreshing drink often savored as a midday delight. This age-old recipe dates back to the Mayan civilization, where it was consumed for its high energy content. The light sweetness and the unique texture of the corn make it a perfect thirst quencher for hot summer days.

Ingredients
- Corn dough (Masa Harina)
- 1 cup
- Water
- 4 cups
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Sugar (optional)
