A few weeks ago and again a couple nights ago, I went to the “Paletería El Carmen” just a few blocks south of the zócalo in Puebla. After the concert, my friends and I were thirsty and they suggested we stop there. I had the most glorious tamarind water ever —just a tad sugary but with enough acidity. Delicious and refreshing!
So two days ago, I repeated the experience by myself. The next day, chatting with the women at the crafts workshop I attend at a friend’s house, I told them about it. Turns out it’s the most famous place in Puebla to have ice cream, popsicles, and fresh flavored water.
The freshness and flavor of their products make me wonder why we choose to consume bottled soda and other beverages when we can have the real thing.
