Hi Pati I was watching your program this past Saturday afternoon on PBS.. would this be the Same drink you got from the Taco stand I don’t remember the place you were but the Mexican guys had red ball caps on.They server you a drink to soothe the heat of the Chili’s? I’d like to know more information on this particular Drink please & Thankyou
Oh no this is a different one. I think you are referring to horchata https://patijinich.com/recipe/horchata-with-cinnamon-and-vanilla/
Your recipes look great. I have a question about limas. How do they compare with Meyer lemons?
Thanks!
Limas are a kind of more like a sweet lime. It has a very unique taste.
Where can Iget information on calories and carbs for this drink. I am diabetic and need to know how much I can drink. Sounds good
Janie…Sorry but we don’t track the nutritional data.
Was watching a program tonight and Pati mentioned a fruit I had never heard of before. She called it lema, similar to a lemon but she spoke of the differences and tried to research it on the internet but could not find. Just wondering what the correct spelling is. Please help! Thank you.

You were close Debbie…it’s lima! They sell them online or you can try international, Asian or latino stores. If you can’t find a lima, you can use a lemon or lime.
