ok, according to my Mum there's this flower/plant called Flor de Jamaica (jamaica flower), you boil 'till the waters red and hot, then you let it rest. You can drink it with or whitiout sugar. It's Tasty AND healthy.

Yeah, it's very old Turkish drink and Turks established and governed states and empires in India and Pakistan (there wasn't a place named Pakistan in past actually) so it's possible they have same drink. Though we don't make sweet ayran, that would be disgusting.

Horchata! I've had some I'd just wish I know how to make it. The only drink I know how to make Is homemade beer and I can't have any for 7 more years...

INGREDIENTS
1 cup long grain rice...the white kind, not brown.
2 quarts water
1 cinnamon stick, broken into pieces
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup white sugar
Pretty much you mix rice, H2O and cinnamon in a saucepan. Then you leave it alone, off of the stove for awhile, I'd say like 2-3 hrs. then you boil it and let it simmer for about 20-30 minutes. Then you blend it and strain it. Let it get cool though,before you drink...oh, before you drink, put in sugar and vanilla(if you want), I just said 1/2 cup but it really depends on how sweet you want it. I don't really put that much.

Many thanks!!! I do love making new things, althought by the way all my cooking seems to go I'll probably mess up and add like 3 cups of black pepper or something like that.

I like to drink something my dad invented and I named Tretonaia.
Spanish speakers just think I'm weird, since Cubans don't pronounce that much their Rs and Ss. While a normal cuban would say "rohses" really fast I would say "rouwhssssesss" and end with a hiss.
I can't help myself. But it really helps me with my Russian, I sound like a natural!!

AVOID BLACK PEPPER!!!!
for agua fresca(Fresh water) just pick a fruit and blend it with the following:
1 large cantaloupe or half a watermelon, seeded and diced (about 3 cups)
1 1/2 cups water
2 to 4 tablespoons sugar
2 to 3 limes, juiced
***I put in a fruit already.
