Tesgüino
Tesgüino is a special drink that is made by some Native American people in Mexico and the southwestern United States. It's made from corn that has been soaked in water and then allowed to ferment, which means the corn starts to break down and change in a special way.
Think of it like how you make pancakes at home. You mix flour and water together and then let it sit for a bit so it gets all bubbly. Tesgüino is like that, but instead of making pancakes, people make a special kind of drink!
After the corn has fermented, it is mashed up and strained through a special kind of cloth to get rid of any big pieces. Then, the liquid is boiled to make sure it's safe to drink. Sometimes people add things like fruit or honey to give the tesgüino more flavor.
When people drink tesgüino, they usually do it during special occasions like festivals or ceremonies. It's an important part of some Native American cultures, and helps bring people together to celebrate and honor their traditions.
