“Carolina took a sip. Wow. This ponche was unlike any she'd ever had, and she considered herself a ponche snob. "This is so good! It has a tart taste I'm not familiar with. What's in it?" Julieta grinned. "Oh, I use tejocotes. They are simultaneously sweet and sour. Super hard to find, but I discovered an orchard in Julian that supplies them for me. I brought them up for the holiday." Carolina liked this woman already. Tejocotes were a small stone fruit that tasted a bit sour, kind of like a guava-laced bitter apple. She loved the colors of them--- they could be variegated shades of orange, yellow, or red.”
