Atole is a warm, creamy hot beverage popular in Mexico and Central America. Atole is thickened with corn masa and flavored with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Atole is often enjoyed during the colder months or as part of special occasions and celebrations. It goes well with tamales and is especially popular during holidays like the Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos) and Las Posadas.
