Easy Atol de Elote

Atol de Elote is a traditional drink of Mesoamerican origin. It is served hot and it warms the soul. The atole is easy to make although it takes a little bit of time and patience. In the end though, you'll have made something so delicious and well worth the effort!

The original Mesoamerican recipe calls for young white corn on the husk. It can be difficult to find that type of corn, so instead, I opted to make my recipe with organic yellow corn, which is much easier to find. The traditional recipe also doesn't use cornstarch but I found that by adding a few tablespoons in, it gives the atole a richer consistency, which makes it tastes better.

This looks delicious! I was craving this, haven't had it since I was a teenager. Was looking for an easy recipe to make it. Thank you will try this!

Been wanting to drink this for a long time. I’ve messed up every recipe. Yours is so much simpler, and easy to follow. Excited to try it.

Very similar to how I was taught, a bit more refined/gourmet which I appreciate. I hope to make this soon, it's December but the weather here is mild.

Let’s say I’m using corn on the cob does the corn have to be boiled first or uncooked

I’m not sure if I made my correctly (I did use a different recipe, and it didn’t tell me to sift out the puréed corn after blending it). It’s kinda like tapioca pudding. 😆 🥲😅

What about the corn paste did you used that or just the juice?

So essentially this is just creamed corn, blended, strained, and added to milk

Don’t add too much powdered cinnamon at the end, it’s overwhelming, Add a few grains of cooked corn on top to garnish, it’s the little things…..
