Papelón con limón

Papelón con limón is a cherished Venezuelan drink, ideal for beating the heat. It is crafted from a few simple ingredients: panela (a type of unrefined cane sugar), water, and a splash of either lemon or lime juice. This refreshing beverage is often enjoyed during the hottest part of the day, making it a popular choice for cooling down.

This delightful drink pairs wonderfully with traditional Venezuelan dishes such as arepas, cachapas, or even a hearty hervido (a rich chicken or beef stew). Its refreshing, sweet, and tangy flavor not only helps you cool down but also complements the diverse flavors of Venezuelan cuisine.
