Horchata de chufa is Valencia's defining drink: a sweet iced beverage made from Alboraya tigernuts, served with long soft fartons for dipping.
Horchata de chufa (tigernut milk) was brought to Valencia by the Moors in the 8th century. The chufa, a small earth-almond tuber, has been grown in the Alboraya huerta north of Valencia since then. The drink is made by soaking the chufas, grinding them, and pressing the milky liquid; the resulting drink is sweetened, iced and served in tall glasses. Horchateria Daniel scaled the family's Alboraya horchata into a city-wide brand from 1949. Fartons (long soft sticks) were invented specifically for dipping into horchata, with Polo the canonical maker (brand founded 1939 in Titaguas, moved to Alboraya in 1960).
