Time for Rosca!
Today, most Mexicans celebrate the “Día de los Reyes Magos”, which loosely translates to “Three Kings Day“. Kids get their “Christmas” gifts today, in line with the Bible’s tale of the baby Jésus and the Three Kings. More importantly (for the grown-up atheists among us), there’s also delicious cake to be had - it’s called rosca and is a kind of sweet bread with dried fruit and a little bit of rum in it.
Maru’s mom makes this cake every year, and this year Maru decided for the first time to try her hand at making her own. She turned out five totally awesome roscas, of which we’ve only managed to consume two so far - with a little help from our friends.
