Chicha is a traditional fermented drink made by many Indigenous peoples of the Amazon. It is prepared by chewing cooked manioc (cassava) and spitting it into a communal vessel, where natural enzymes in saliva help start the fermentation process. More than just a beverage, chicha is central to social life and ceremony — shared during gatherings, rituals, and celebrations as a symbol of unity and community. #culture #tradition #food #drink #interesting #amazonas #indigenous | Unrestricted Borders
