If you like atole for this season when the cold begins, I recommend this delicious guava atole with cinnamon, star anise, sweetened with piloncillo; very traditional. Additionally, guava is a source of vitamin C, which will help you build your defenses in this cold weather. Try it and share it with those you love the most.

Heat water in a small pot, add guavas, cinnamon, star anise, and piloncillo. Cook until the guava is soft and the spices release their aroma. Remove from heat, let cool, and set aside. Blend the previous mixture in the T-fal® InfinyForce blender using the "blend" function, then strain. Return the mixture to the pot, add the cornstarch dissolved in milk, and cook for 20 minutes over medium heat starting when it begins to boil, stirring occasionally.
