'''Chicha''' is a term used in some regions of Latin America for several varieties of fermented and non-fermented beverages, rather often to those derived from maize and similar non-alcoholic beverages. Chicha may also be made from [[manioc root]] (also called [[yuca]] or [[cassava]]), [[maize]], [[grape]], [[apple]] or other [[fruits]]. | '''Chicha''' is a term used in some regions of Latin America for several varieties of fermented and non-fermented beverages, rather often to those derived from maize and similar non-alcoholic beverages.

While chicha is most commonly associated with [[maize]], the word is used in the Andes for almost any homemade [[fermented drink]], and many different grains or fruits are used to make "chicha" in different regions. | While chicha is most commonly associated with [[maize]], the word is used in the Andes for almost any homemade [[fermented drink]], and many different grains or fruits are used to make "chicha" in different regions. | ||
