Today, I got an horchata to-go after breakfast with my mom. I had ordered one just to see if it was good the first time she’d taken us to this new Mexican restaurant. Horchata is one of those drinks that is either gross or like home. This one had been delicious. By far one of the best I’d ever had. Everyone agreed, once they had tried it, too. I was worried today that it wouldn’t be as good as I had remembered it. That it just would be better than the crap I often find around town, but not be delicious on its own – only by comparison.
But the chefs came through on this one – it was truly delicious. So, so tasty, I happily gulped it here and there all day long. Even had another big sip tonight before getting ready for bed. Totally delicious.
Thank you, God, for this lovely surprise and gift. In your name, I pray. Amen.
