m.pulque. ( Central American Spanish, Mexican Spanish)* * *SM Méx pulquePULQUE Pulque is a traditional alcoholic drink from Mexico. Thick, slightly sweet and milky, it is brewed from the juice of the agave plant, or maguey, and is roughly equivalent in strength to beer. It was the sacred drink of the Aztecs, who used it in offerings to the gods and also for medicinal purposes. In modern-day Mexico it is often given to children since it is rich in vitamins, and in the cities it is sold in special bars called pulquerías.* * *•• Cultural note:A thick, white, Mexican alcoholic drink made from fermented maguey juice; the sacred drink of the Aztecs.

* * *pulque nmCAm, Méx pulque, = fermented agave cactus juicePULQUEThe juice of the agave cactus was used for making drinks for centuries before the arrival of the Spanish in Mexico. The liquid (known as “aguamiel” when first extracted) was fermented to make the viscous, milky drink known as pulque. In pre-Columbian culture it was a social, religious and economic institution at the centre of many myths and cults. It was drunk by priests to induce fervour before rituals, or given to the victims of human sacrifice, or to warriors before battle. Still considered an aphrodisiac, it is less popular today. Most of the old “pulquerías” (or pulque bars) have disappeared, and attempts to bottle pulque have not proved popular. However, tequila and mescal, which are distilled from the sap of agave cacti, are becoming increasingly popular internationally.* * *m Méxpulque (alcoholic drink made from cactus)
