Horchata.
Horchata de Chufa, or Tiger Nut milk is a delicious and nutritious nut free, lactose free, dairy free drink made from soaking, blending and straining Tiger Nuts. It originated in Spain many years ago. Legend has it that Horchata (spelled originally as Orxata) got its name when a young girl in a village offered some to the king of Catalunya in Spain. After enjoying the drink the king asked what it was. When the young girl answered ‘tiger nut milk’, the king exclaimed this isn’t milk, this is ‘Or, xata !’ In Catalan ‘or’ means gold, and ‘xata’ pronounced chata, means sweetie.

Enough about history! We searched high and low for a ready made horchata that we like, and it took a while but we found two! We discovered Amandin, a company that work hard to produce amazing organic gluten and dairy free products. You can choose between two versions of horchata, a new sugar free version with agave, or a more traditional version made to the authentic Spanish recipe. Both are exclusive to us here in the UK, both are organic and both are delicious perfect dairy free milk alternatives!

We still only charge £1 postage and packing for any item, and FREE postage and packing on orders over £30 (UK only)
