Alboraya

If you want to try the best horchata (sweetened tigernut milk) in Madrid, get yourself to Alboraya immediately. The owners of this ice cream parlour are the second generation of the Monrós family who lived in the Valencian town of Alboraya and moved to Madrid more than 30 years ago. They brought with them their artisanal recipe for horchata, 'leche merengada' (sweetened milk with egg whites and cinnamon) and ice cream. The ice cream flavours are rotated, and new ones are featured each season.
