Tiger Nut Milk (Horchata de Chufa)
Horchata de Chufa is a popular refreshing summer drink in Spain. Blogger Audrey also likes to use this unconventional milk in smoothies and with breakfast.

They are little tubers that grow underground on sedge grass, and are packed with so many nutrients that they’ve gained superfood status.
