Inca's Food Maiz Morado (Purple Corn) 15 oz - Product of Peru

Simply love Maíz morado, besides the extraordinary flavor has a lot of health benefits.

This product was perfect for my chicha morada recipe. Each package is 15 ounces which is enough for a gallon. High quality corn. Pour one gallon of water into a pot. Add the 15 ounce package of purple corn. Wash the outside of a pineapple and remove the rinds and core, adding both to the pot of water. (Eat the pineapple fruit) Quarter one Granny Smith apple and add it to the pot. Add 4 cinnamon sticks and one tablespoon of cloves. Mix and turn on flame, bring to a boil. Once boiling drop flame down low and simmer covered for 30 minutes. Uncover and simmer for an additional 15 minutes. Remove contents and strain liquid into another pot. Add the juice of 2 limes and 1 cup of sugar while the liquid is still warm. Mix so the sugar dissolves. Chill in fridge. Enjoy!

Great for chicha morada, good flavor.

Worked as advertised. Made a delightfully refreshing drink.

Made chicha however the price is expensive. We found a local market for half the price. But overall, I was able to make a batch with this single bag. A gallon

I’m not Peruvian so I’m not sure if this product would be used for anything else besides chicha morada. But the drink was delicious. I didn’t follow the recipe on the bag exactly. I found a woman on YouTube with a slightly different recipe. It was pretty close though.

This is real Peruvian corn. It’s not dyed with food coloring. Read the written instructions completely before making your chicha. The recipe ingredients show the use of the full bag of corn, but the instructions are for half a bag. I cut the sugar to 1/2 cup and sweetened it the rest of the way with apple juice. Next time I’ll omit the sugar and use apple and pineapple juice to sweeten. This drink takes me straight back to Peru!
