Purple Drop chicha morada served at dinner

ROOTED IN PERU

Inspired by chicha morada, a purple corn drink made in Peru for centuries. We’re honoring tradition while making it easy to enjoy today.

Naturally Purple

That deep purple comes from the corn itself called anthocyanins. Same pigment family you’ll find in berries, just way bolder looking.

Brewed with Fruit + Spices

Purple corn is traditionally simmered with fruit and warm spices. That’s where the flavor gets its balance and depth.

BRIGHT & REFRESHING

Bright, lightly spiced, and surprisingly refreshing. Clean, fruit-forward, and nothing like what you’d expect from corn.

chicha morada, reimagined

Rooted in Peruvian tradition, shaped for the present.

WHO

Purple Drop was founded by Maria Velasquez with co-founder Roger Velasquez. The recipe started with Roger’s abuela in Peru and was passed down to his mother. It’s the chicha morada Roger grew up drinking in Lima, and the same recipe is in every can.

WHAT

A crisp, refreshing drink made with purple corn, fruit, and warm spices, classic ingredients brought into a modern, easy-to-drink format.

WHY

It’s refreshing, made with purple corn, sweetened with agave, and has no artificial colors or preservatives. Rooted in real culture and made for everyday life.

Peruvian Refresher

Rooted in Culture

Purple corn has been part of everyday life in Peru for thousands of years. Long before it was bottled or branded, it was simmered slowly with fruit and spices, poured at family tables, and shared in homes and street corners alike. Chicha morada wasn’t just a drink; it was a ritual, a refreshment, and a way of bringing people together.

Purple Drop carries that tradition forward. Made from real purple corn, fruit, and spice, it keeps the deep color, naturally vibrant flavor, and refreshing feel that made chicha morada so beloved in the first place. This is our way of honoring where the drink comes from, keeping it familiar, refreshing, and easy to enjoy today, without stripping away what made it special to begin with.
