Valencian Horchata is suitable for people with hypertension, as it is low in sodium and high in minerals: phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, calcium and iron.This refreshing and tasty drink is normally served ice cold during the summer. What are tiger nuts? They are not actually nuts. In fact, it’s a small root vegetable, grown in a field and harvested using similar techniques as a potato.
