As you can see the mistela has many names, is a typical traditional drink of the Andes, a sweet liqueur based on fruit but also prepared only with herbs and clear miche..
Since I was a little girl I always heard my parents and grandparents talk about the mistela, about their preparation, which was the best and I even heard them say that if Juana did it better than Emiliana.

And it is that in the Andes it is a tradition to drink this liquor at all times, when a woman gives birth they give her hot mistela to drink, or the pisses of the baby as they also call it, they say that it is very good for the woman to throw away all the bad things that remained inside. But the urines or mistela were also given to the visits of the baby.

There is no party that does not drink the mistela, at home my mom is the expert, she makes several flavors and I particularly love the patchita, blackberry and pineapple..
Now the mistela is more commercial because of the bad situation in which Venezuela finds itself, flavors such as lemon, peach, strawberry attract many people's palates, they are very tasty..

It is very important to choose pineapples that are in good condition, that they look mature, because it depends on getting a good result, we peel them, we remove the remaining black eyes and we cut them into squares..

The second step is to liquefy and strain the mixture very well.

Next we put to the fire and add the sugar. Cook over medium heat until reduced by half. In this elaboration I used 2 medium pineapples and a cup of sugar, since I do not like that the mistela is so sweet.

Below I leave the video for you to see a demonstration of the moment of mixing miche with pineapple juice, I added a cup of miche nothing else, as I did not want it to be so strong..
