Champurrado (beverage)

Champurrado is a chocolate-based atole, a warm and thick Mexican drink, based on masa harina (hominy flour), piloncillo, water or milk and occasionally containing  anise seed and or vanilla bean (tasting somewhat like a thick chai tea). Early in the morning in certain parts of the city, people crowd around street-corner tamale carts as non-alcoholic champurrado is served in styrofoam cups as part of an on-the-go breakfast. An instant mix for champurrado is available in Mexican grocery stores.
