Preparation Of Pulque De Flor De Cempasuchil

A woman cuts petals from the Cempasuchil Flower to make Pulque de Flor de Cempasuchil. Pulque is an alcoholic beverage of pre-Hispanic origin that is obtained from the leaves of the maguey and is made from the fermentation of mucilage (an organic substance with a viscous texture, typical of some vegetables), popularly known as aguamiel. The Cempasuchil Flower symbolizes the Day of the Dead in Mexico, thanks to its color and aroma it is one of the most representative elements of the offerings for the dead. It is used to give color to textiles, make insecticides, medicines and food, among other uses. The marigold flower adorns the Day of the Dead altars and offerings in the country.
