]]> Drinking beverages that were created or popularized in a place is such a great way to understand an area through the food. When you travel, especially in South and Central America, make sure to try a sample of these local drinks to really get a feel for the cultures and appreciate the local produce used to make them.

Agua Fresca

In Mexico, especially in the summer, an agua fresca, which literally means fresh or cool water, is the way to go. This slightly sweet, very refreshing drink is made usually from just water and fruit, or sometimes flowers like hibiscus.

Horchata

Horchata was actually created first in North Africa long ago using tiger nuts, and then was taken by the Spanish and thereby transferred to Latin America. However, the horchata that is enjoyed now throughout the continent is very different from the original, and is made from a rice milk base and often has delicious cinnamon as well.

Refresco

A refresco is essentially a fruit smoothie with a water or milk base, but it special because it is made with local tropical fruits so it is extra sweet and delicious. Refrescos as really common in Costa Rica, but you can find some type in most other Latin American countries.

The products available are so fresh and delicious, and each region of the country has given their signature dishes to create the overall cuisine. If you are looking to travel to Spain, eating is one of the most important things you can do while you’re there. So don’t miss out on any of these traditional Spanish meals!

Galicia

Galicia is a region in the Northwest of Spain. The most famous dish you will find there is pulpo, which is an octopus. They prepare the octopus by boiling it, and then simply seasoning it with olive oil, paprika, and salt. It is so delicious and tender, perfect for seafood lovers.

Valencia

A lot of people know paella originated in Valencia, but what they don’t know is that the paella they cook is nothing like we have in other parts of the world. In Valencia, you will find snails, rabbit, sausage and more, although on the coast you can also find seafood paella.

Catalonia

Although you can find pa amb tomaquet, or tomato and bread, all over Spain, the dish actually originated in Catalonia.  It consists of toasted bread with tomato pulp, and although it is simple, it is absolutely scrumptious.
