Consider this: coca is not the same as cocaine. The coca is a plant that plays an important role in traditional Andean culture. The coca leaves, when they’re chewed by the andean people, act as a mild stimulant and supress hunger, thirst, pain and fatigue. And it’s not recent: traces of coca have been found in mummies dating 3000 years ago, when it was viewed as having a divin origin. Is it ok? good. If you have traveled to Peru and have some coca leaves, you can prepare this traditional liquor. The recipe is for 8 people.

Like all good things, it takes a little time: the aniseed liquor will need 15 days to be ready. This recipe is for 8 people.
