1
Prepare the Base
In a large pot, combine the purple corn, pineapple peel, water, cinnamon stick, and cloves. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
2
Simmer
Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to infuse.
3
Strain
After simmering, strain the liquid into a large pitcher, discarding the solids.
4
Sweeten and Flavor
Stir in the sugar and lime juice while the liquid is still warm, mixing until the sugar is fully dissolved.
5
Chill
Allow the chicha morada to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled.
6
Serve
Serve over ice and garnish with fresh fruit like sliced pineapple or lime.
