Chile is a country with varied costumes, traditional things, myths and legends. In summer, the main problem is the sun because people are often getting thirsty and obviously not to everyone likes water. Moreover, in the case of women, they think that juice and other drinks contain many calories. So, what can we drink?

One of the most important Chilean chef, who works in the Hyatt Hotel, gave us a solution to our problem. He said: “ You can drink mote con huesillo”. Mote is a kind of boiled maize prepared many years ago by Indian settlers. This boiled maize is served with a glass of juice made with dry peaches called huesillo and sugar. This is a natural drink so “it has few calories” the expert smiling said.
